Frankly, I think the whole thing would have been avoided if 30 years ago, the Federal Government made it policy that no one could enter or exit the cockpit during flight, and put a secure lock on the door.

IIRC, the lock would added about $50 to the price of the plane.

Maybe AL can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe El Al policy is that the cockpit door remain locked and closed at all times during flight?
