a device engagement portion configured to at least partially surround a portion of the portable electronic device, and

wherein the base assembly axis intersects the body axis, and

wherein the second portion of the base assembly is configured to move along the base assembly axis to move the body along the base assembly axis.

2. The security apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the body is moveably coupled to the base assembly and wherein the first and second securing members are configured to pivot about the body axis.

3. The security apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the device engagement portion comprises two retainers configured to engage the portable electronic device.

4. The security apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the two retainers are configured to move in a first direction towards each other and in a second direction away from each other.

5. The security apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the device engagement portion further comprises at least one engagement portion lock configured to inhibit movement of the retainers relative to each other.

6. The security apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the base assembly further comprises an anchor portion pivotally coupled to one of the first base assembly portion and the second base assembly portion and configured to contact the display fixture.

7. A security apparatus for securing a portable electronic device for retail display, comprising:

a base assembly extending along a base assembly axis and configured to couple to a display fixture, the base assembly comprising a base portion configured to move along the base assembly axis;

a body extending along a body axis and configured to couple to the base portion;

a first securing member coupled to the body; and

a second securing member coupled to the body, wherein at least one of the first and second securing members is configured to move along the body axis relative to the body,

wherein the first and second securing members each comprise a device engagement portion configured to at least partially surround a portion of the portable electronic device, and

wherein the base portion is configured to move along the base assembly axis to move the body along the base assembly axis.

8. The security assembly of claim 7 , wherein the base assembly axis intersects the body axis.

9. The security apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the body is moveably coupled to the base portion and wherein the first and second securing members are configured to pivot about the body axis.

10. The security apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the device engagement portion comprises two retainers configured to engage the portable electronic device.

11. The security apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the two retainers are configured to move in a first direction towards each other and in a second direction away from each other.

12. The security apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the device engagement portion further comprises at least one engagement portion lock configured to inhibit movement of the retainers relative to each other.

13. The security apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the base assembly further comprises an anchor portion pivotally coupled to the base portion and configured to contact the display fixture.

14. A method of manufacturing a security apparatus for securing a portable electronic device, comprising:

structuring a base assembly to,

extend along a base assembly axis,

couple to a display fixture,

comprise a base portion configured to move along the base assembly axis;

structuring a body to extend along a body axis and to couple to the base portion;

structuring a first securing member to couple to the body;

structuring a second securing member to couple to the body, wherein at least one of the first and second securing members is structured to move along the body axis relative to the body;

structuring the first and second securing members to each comprise a device engagement portion configured to at least partially surround a portion of the portable electronic device; and

further structuring the base portion to move the body along the base assembly axis.

15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising structuring the base assembly and the body so that the base assembly axis intersects the body axis.

16. The method of claim 14 , further comprising structuring the body to be moveably coupled to the base portion such that the first and second securing members are configured to pivot about the body axis.

17. The method of claim 14 , further comprising structuring the device engagement portion to comprise two retainers configured to engage the portable electronic device.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising structuring the two retainers to move in a first direction towards each other and in a second direction away from each other.

19. The method of claim 18 , further comprising structuring the device engagement portion to comprise at least one engagement portion lock configured to inhibit movement of the two retainers relative to each other.

20. The method of claim 14 , further comprising structuring the base assembly to comprise an anchor portion pivotally coupled to the base portion and configured to contact the display fixture.
