1. A portable security apparatus comprising: a first structure having a compartment comprising a plurality of walls and at least one access door, the at least one access door providing access through at least two sides of said first structure to insert and remove one or more items from said first structure, wherein said at least one access door comprises one of a slidable panel, a retractable panel, and a hinged panel;a first accessible lock device controllable to lock and/or to unlock said at least one access door;a second structure configured to receive said first structure, said second structure comprising a first mounting structure to couple said first structure to said second structure and a second mounting structure to attach said second structure to one or more external structures;a second lock device to lock said first structure to said second structure, wherein said first structure comprises said second lock device; andfurther wherein said one or more items is accessible when said first structure is received by said second structure and said second lock device is in a locked position. 2. The portable security apparatus of claim 1, comprising lock control circuitry configured to lock and/or unlock at least one of said first accessible lock device and said second lock device. 3. The portable security apparatus of claim 2, wherein said lock control circuitry includes an input coupled to at least one of a key switch, a barrel security key lock switch, an electro-mechanical combination lock switch, a radio frequency identification device (RFID), a proximity device, a motion sensing device, a motion sensing device, or a biometric identification authentication device, and a GPS device. 4. The portable security apparatus of claim 3, wherein said portable security apparatus further includes notification control circuitry configured to activate at least one of said radio transmitter, said radio receiver, said proximity device, a motion sensing device, said GPS device, and an audible alarm device upon receipt of an alarm condition. 5. The portable security apparatus of claim 4, wherein said alarm condition includes at least one of a detection of a change in a threshold level by circuitry associated with at least one of said radio frequency identification device (RFID), said proximity device, said motion sensing device, and said GPS device. 6. The portable security apparatus of claim 1, wherein said motion sensing device includes one of a mechanical switch, an electro-mechanical switch, a magnetic switch, an electro-magnetic switch, conductive liquid, and an accelerometer. 7. The portable security apparatus of claim 5, wherein said detection of a change in a threshold level includes detection of a predetermined number of occurrences and/or a predetermined duration of time. 8. The portable security apparatus of claim 1, wherein said one or more external structures comprises at least one of a desk, furniture, bed, cabinet, wall, vehicle seat, vehicle console area, dashboard area, glove box, safe, purse, briefcase, luggage, backpack, belt, harness, cable, and chain. 9. A portable security apparatus comprising: a first structure having a compartment with an interior space configured to receive one or more items and further including an access port;a second structure configured to receive said first structure, said second structure having a first mounting structure to couple said first structure to said second structure and a second mounting structure to attach said second structure to one or more external structures;a third structure, including an access panel, said third structure having a portion within said first structure configured to pivotally move said one or more items from a retracted position within said compartment to an extended position from said compartment, pivoting around a common axis between said retracted position and said extended position;a first lock device to lock said access panel to said first structure;a second lock device to lock said first structure to said second structure, andwherein said first structure comprises said second lock device. 10. The portable security apparatus of claim 9, further comprising an actuator configured to cause at least one of extension or retraction of said third structure. 11. The portable security apparatus of claim 10, wherein said actuator is at least one or a combination of hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, magnetic, mechanical, and electromechanical structure(s). 12. A portable security apparatus comprising: a first structure having a compartment comprising at least one wall and at least one access door, the at least one access door while open providing access to insert and remove one or more items from said first structure, wherein said one or more items remain stationary after insertion before, during, and after opening and closing of said at least one access door, and wherein said at least one access door comprises one of a panel, a retractable panel, and a hinged panel;a first accessible lock device controllable to lock and/or to unlock said at least one access door;a second structure configured to receive said first structure, said second structure comprising a first mounting structure to couple said first structure to said second structure and a second mounting structure to attach said second structure to one or more external structures;a second lock device to lock said first structure to said second structure; andwherein said first structure comprises said second lock device. 13. The portable security apparatus of claim 12, comprising lock control circuitry configured to lock and/or unlock at least one of said first accessible lock device and said second lock device. 14. The portable security apparatus of claim 13, wherein said lock control circuitry includes an input coupled to at least one of a radio transmitter, a radio receiver, a key switch, a barrel security key lock switch, an electro-mechanical combination lock switch, a radio frequency identification device (RFID), a proximity device, a motion sensing device, a biometric identification authentication device and a GPS device. 15. The portable security apparatus of claim 13, wherein said portable security apparatus further includes notification control circuitry configured to activate at least one of said radio transmitter, said radio receiver, said proximity device, a motion sensing device, said GPS device, and an audible alarm device upon receipt of an alarm condition. 16. The portable security apparatus of claim 15, wherein said alarm condition includes at least one of a detection of a change in a threshold level by circuitry associated with at least one of said radio frequency identification device (RFID), said proximity device, said motion sensing device, and said GPS device. 17. The portable security apparatus of claim 16, wherein said motion sensing device includes one of a mechanical switch, an electro-mechanical switch, a magnetic switch, an electro-magnetic switch, and an accelerometer. 18. The portable security apparatus of claim 16, wherein said detection of a change in a threshold level includes detection of a predetermined number of occurrences and/or a predetermined duration of time. 19.
