Say you have your own hardware, what would you need to access the display and keyboard securely remotely over the network? Are there such devices available? I imagine you can have the OS disable its display and keyboard input after boot for added security, and lock down the boot process, but it still seems like it's hard to do this securely. I'm trying to think of a scenario where you can have:

1) Full Disk Encryption

2) Two physical machines owned by you, perhaps stored in some basement

3) Be able to boot them back on without physical access (perhaps this is simply a Bad Idea?)

4) One machine with two NICs running Tor, exposing only Tor to one of the NICs

5) The other machine running a VM host with 1 VM for each of your services. The host is connected to the NIC of the first machine, thus only has access to the internet through Tor
