94 Oldsmobile 88 Will Not Start!

Hello, About a month ago the security light on the the car came on but there were no immediate problems.  Then one day the car would not start for about half hour.  This has happend a few times but always started after a time.  Now, the car will not start at all.  We just had a tune up on it and the battery is fine.  All lights come on but the engine will not turn over and ther is no noise to indicate it may be the starter or alternator.  Could it be the security system or our keys being worn?   Please help asap!  Thank you for your time!
