1. A mobile communication device, comprising:
- at least one processor to;
display a user interface on a touch screen, the user interface comprising a button to receive a touch event by a user;
determine the touch event is received by the button and enter an armed alarm condition;
maintain the armed alarm condition while the touch event is continuously being received by the button;
determine the touch event is no longer received by the button and enter a first triggered alarm condition and, in the first triggered alarm condition transmit to a server location of the mobile communication device indicative of an alarm event for the user so that, after a first particular period of time in the triggered alarm condition, a communication is triggered to an emergency responder unless a first disarm code is received within the first particular period of time;
if the first disarm code is not received within the first particular period of time, enter a second triggered alarm condition until a second disarm code is received within a second particular period of time, wherein the second particular period of time is greater than the first particular period of time;
if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmit to the server at least one other location of the mobile communication device for display with the location of the alarm event for the user within a geographical area;
if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmit to an emergency contact identified by the user a set of instructions including numbered steps instructing the emergency contact how to respond, including the step of noting the at least one other location of the mobile communication device; and
display an event portal accessible to the user and the emergency responder, wherein the event portal includes an event identification, user identification details, an approximate address of the alarm event, and a map of the geographical area identifying the approximate address of the alarm event, an approximate address of a current location of the mobile communication device, and a location of the emergency responder, and wherein the event portal displays an option to clear the alarm condition and an option to confirm that appropriate action has been taken.

15. A method, comprising:
-
displaying, by at least one processor, a user interface on a touch screen of a mobile device, the user interface comprising a button to receive a touch event by a user; determining, by the at least one processor, the touch event is received by the button and entering an armed alarm condition; maintaining, by the at least one processor, the armed alarm condition while the touch event is continuously received by the button; determining, by the at least one processor, the touch event is no longer received by the button and entering a first triggered alarm condition and, in the first triggered alarm condition, transmitting to a server location of the mobile communication device indicative of an alarm event for the user so that after a first particular period of time in the first triggered alarm condition, a communication is triggered to an emergency responder unless a first disarm code is received within the first particular period of time; if the first disarm code is not received within the first particular period of time, entering a second triggered alarm condition until a second disarm code is received within a second particular period of time, wherein the second particular period of time is greater than the first particular period of time; if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmitting, by the at least one processor, to the server at least one other location of the mobile communication device for display with the location of the alarm event for the user within a geographical area; if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmit to an emergency contact identified by the user a set of instructions including numbered steps instructing the emergency contact how to respond, including the step of noting the at least one other location of the mobile communication device; and displaying, by the at least one processor, an event portal accessible to the user and the emergency responder, wherein the event portal includes an event identification, user identification details, an approximate address of the alarm event, and a map of the geographical area identifying the approximate address of the alarm event, an approximate address of a current location of the mobile communication device, and a location of the emergency responder, and wherein the event portal displays an option to clear the alarm condition and an option to confirm that appropriate action has been taken. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

30. A mobile communication device, comprising:
-
at least one processor to; display a user interface on a touch screen, the user interface comprising a button to receive a touch event by a user; determine the touch event is received by the button and enter an armed alarm condition; maintain the armed alarm condition while the touch event is continuously being received by the button; determine the touch event is no longer received by the button and enter a triggered alarm condition and, in the triggered alarm condition transmit to a server location of the mobile communication device indicative of an alarm event for the user so that, after a first particular period of time in the triggered alarm condition, a communication is triggered to an emergency responder unless a first disarm code is received within the first particular period of time; if the first disarm code is not received within the first particular period of time, enter a triggered alarm condition wherein a camera flash strobes and an alarm sound plays unless a second disarm code is received within a second particular period of time, wherein the second particular period of time is greater than the first particular period of time; if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmit to the server at least one other location of the mobile communication device for display with the location of the alarm event for the user within a geographical area; if the second disarm code is not received within the second particular period of time, transmit to an emergency contact previously identified by the user a set of instructions including (1) do not call the user, (2) write down the at least one other location, (3) refer to a map of the at least one other location of the mobile communication device; and display an event portal accessible to the user and the emergency responder, wherein the event portal includes an event identification, user identification details, an approximate address of the alarm event, and a map of the geographical area identifying the approximate address of the alarm event, an approximate address of a current location of the mobile communication device, and a location of the emergency responder, and wherein the event portal displays an option to clear the alarm condition and an option to confirm that appropriate action has been taken.
