In my 2012 Wrangler Rubicon with the tops off I was always worrying about leaving items in the back while on excursions so this is what I came up with.

The Rubbermaid 48 gallon action packer cargo box is reasonable price $78 (Walmart), high capacity, weather proof, light weight, durable, secure, color matching and fits perfectly in the place of the rear seat it leaves room behind front seats for reclining and additional space and allows access to the factory rear under-floor compartment and jack access.

I drilled holes in the bottom and using U-bolts attached the container to the metal rear hold down loops for the rear seat, looped the U-bolts thru the seat hold downs up thru the drilled holes in the bottom of the container and secured with metal plate, bolts and rubber caps over the exposed threads to protect items placed in storage container.

I've always like the Rubbermaid storage containers..I've used them for years. Looks good

Beautiful!! I'll have to have one.

My set up almost exactly the same but I used chain to secure it so it can move a little front and back if I need it too... It's a good deterrent .... But if someone wants in badly they could break those red plastic pieces fairly easy enough. But it does keep things out of sight
I might make my own wood cargo cover this summer ... Couple threads on them out here...
"homemade rear cargo trunk for $48!!! " is the name of one of them.

Locks deter temptation from honest people but a thief will find a way into most anything no matter how secure.

I figured if someone starting jostling about to break in the motion/theft alarm will go off.
