A security device and base for a mobile device. The security device includes a body, at least two sliding arms coupled to the body, and a leveling plate coupled to the body and configured to receive the mobile device.

A security apparatus for securing a portable electronic device includes a base that defines a cavity extending from a first end of the base to a second end of the base. A holder is structured to engage the base. The holder includes an outer surface defining a plurality of channels terminating at a support surface and a holder groove defined on the outer surface of the holder. The security apparatus further includes a securing portion with a plurality of projections that are each structured to contact the support surface and engage one of the holder grooves. Rotation of the securing portion relative to the holder acts to move at least a portion of each of the plurality of projections into the holder channel and secure the securing portion to the holder, where the portable electronic device is secured between the securing portion and the holder.

A merchandise security system for an electronic item of merchandise is provided. In one example, the merchandise security system includes a continuous alarming power cord comprising at least one electrical conductor. The alarming power cord has a first end adapted to be electrically connected to the electronic item of merchandise and a second end. The merchandise security system also includes a reel for receiving the second end of the alarming power cord and adapted for storing at least a portion of the alarming power cord thereon. In addition, the merchandise security system includes monitoring circuitry in electrical communication with the alarming power cord and configured to detect an interruption in an electrical signal provided to the alarming power cord.

Security systems and methods configured for use with an item of merchandise for retail display include a housing, at least one sensor carried by the housing and at least one output device carried by the housing. The security system further includes a controller carried by the housing and operably coupled to the sensor and to the output device. The controller is operable to determine a distance traveled by the item of merchandise from a retail display “home” position based upon a sensor input from the sensor, and to activate the output device based upon the distance traveled by the item of merchandise exceeding a threshold distance. The controller may utilize the at least one sensor in conjunction with an inertial navigation system (INS) and motion processing algorithms or techniques to determine the distance traveled by the item of merchandise from the retail display “home” position.
