Aspects of the invention relate to a method for securing a vehicle compartment including receiving authorization data; setting a mode of operation of an access element based on the authorization data, the access element operable to control a locking mechanism of the vehicle compartment in a vehicle; receiving sensor data indicating that the vehicle compartment in the vehicle has been opened; and in response to the authorization data corresponding to the second mode of operation and the sensor data contemporaneously indicating that the vehicle compartment is opened: initiating a security protocol. The access element (e.g., user accessible button disposed in the vehicle cabin) can be configured to operate in a first mode of operation that allows the access element to control the locking mechanism and a second mode of operation that prevents the access element from controlling the locking mechanism.
