[intrigueing]

Well, the MoM thing was all a giant trap intended to make Harry think it was just a closed office at night. So it's no huge stretch of the imagination to assume Voldemort is the magical equivalent of a super-hacker as for why no security was tripped. He probably spent a good long time figuring out how to break into the Ministry without anyone noticing - making a couple of mistakes along the way with Bode, etc - and then he sent Harry the bogus Sirius dream as soon as he perfected the ambush plan. One can even imagine the Death Eaters and him running through the scenario beforehand to make sure it worked.

But if Voldemort went to *that* much trouble--

Why not just mosey on down to the prophecy hall and nick it himself?

It seems that sometimes JKR relies heavily on the trope of villains needlessly overcomplicating their nefarious plans for the sake of creating a dramatic narrative with an explosive climax.
