Abstract
An apparatus embodiment includes a security module having a guard frame, a dome slidably engaged with the guard frame, and an alarm system inside the dome. The alarm system includes a controller and a radio frequency transceiver. The security module further includes a suction cup coupled to the dome, a valve in fluid communication with the suction cup and electrically connected to the controller, and a suction cup in fluid communication with the valve. An embodiment may further include a client application including software instructions for arming the alarm system, disarming the alarm system, and opening the valve. The security module may autonomously seek and/or link with another security module, thereby forming an ad hoc communications network to protect an object tethered to the security module by a wireless communications link and/or a security cable.
