Both Boxster models are equipped with an immobiliser with in-key transponder. In addition, the Boxster S has an alarm system with contact-sensitive exterior protection as standard. On request, radar-based interior surveillance is available which protects the interior of the vehicle when the hood is closed. For the Boxster, the alarm system and radar interior surveillance are both available as options.

In conjunction with the alarm system, this optional preparation enables future installation of a vehicle tracking system available from Porsche Tequipment. It makes it possible to locate a stolen vehicle across most of the countries of Europe. The package includes a special wiring loom and a higher-capacity battery. A tilt sensor is included.
