About ADT
ADT has a reputation as being the gold standard in residential security. For over 145 years, ADT has pioneered trusted technology and services in residential and commercial security. The company developed the first automated burglar alarm in the 1940s and the first automated fire alarm system soon after that. The biggest innovation in the security industry, however, may have been when ADT created the central monitoring centers in the 1930s. This made it possible for clients to continuously have a live ADT rep backing up their alarms, around the clock.
The same principle of customer-centric security can still be found in today’s ADT. Built upon the latest technology, ADT monitoring ensures that your security system is backed by a live person who will dispatch emergency services at once to your house if necessary. Other services, like home automation, can now be integrated with your residential security system and powered through your ADT Command wireless touchpad. ADT also offers access to your security alarms, cameras, and smart home through your devices with the easy-to-use ADT Control application.
