I think a system like this could work really well. We have already something akin to this implemented for the armory (and i am happy to see an uptick in armory authentifications recently).
I think giving the ability to uptick the severity by command or automatically based on number of deaths would be a good thing. Command is in control of the station and they are the control instance of security. So it makes sense to give them authority about how much danger the station is currently facing and how much access security needs.
Of course we need a vote-based override based on amount of security officers. Like we have with the armory.
A system such as this would probably work well for classic as well. Just with different tweaked access on the low levels, of course. This would enable us to attach other mechanics (e.g. the emergency shuttle) to it as well.
Most importantly, i think a system such as this gives the crew very important inforamtion. On RP it is kinda rare to release the crew upon the antags, but security raising the bar to the highest emergency rating gives the crew the very important signal to arm up.
