1. A portable alarm system, comprising:
- a portable enclosure that houses a portable power source, a sensor configured to detect disturbance of said portable enclosure, a controller and a wireless transceiver, said controller being in communication with at least said portable motion sensor and said wireless transceiver; and
said wireless transceiver being configured to receive wireless signals from at least one sensor positioned external to and separate from said enclosure and configured to monitor activity external to and separate from said enclosure;
wherein said controller is configured to cause the alarm system to have at least an armed state, a disarmed state, and an entry delay state, said armed state being characterized by said controller transitioning from said armed state to said entry delay state in response to communication from said sensor positioned external to and separate from said enclosure, and said entry delay state being characterized by said controller generating an alarm signal absent action by a user to transition said controller from said entry delay state to said disarmed state;
wherein said controller is further configured to cause the alarm system to initiate an alarm signal in response to detection of disturbance of the said portable enclosure while the alarm system is in the disarmed state.
