If you have heard of [Haven](https://github.com/guardianproject/haven), then Tripwire fills in the void for a robust anti evil maid solution after Haven went dormant.

The GitHub repo describes both the concept and the setup process in great details. For a quick overview, read up to the demo video.

There is also a presentation of Tripwire available on the Counter Surveil podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-wPrOTm5qo

I’ve slowly been working on building a Honeywell burglar alarm panel (a Vista15P/20P) into part of a Pelican case for travel. I can just stick up sensors where I need them temporarily (a PIR, a glassbreak, a couple motions), and then use an ECP bus decoder (like the old AlarmDecoder board[1]) to kick notifications and alerts out where they need to go with an LTE-connected miniPC/Pi.

When I need to secure an area (eg, vending at a convention at a hotel, locking up the room with stock), I can just pop down the Pelican, plug in the keypad (which doubles as the RF transceiver), stick up sensors, and I’m off to the races.
