ADT

ADT develops and delivers comprehensive security solutions for homes and small businesses, encompassing electronic security, fire protection, and smart home automation. The company integrates advanced monitoring capabilities with connected device ecosystems, providing a robust and responsive layer of protection for its clients.

The company's origins trace back to 1874, following a nighttime break-in that highlighted the need for improved security. Edward A. Calahan, known for his work with telegraphic systems, laid foundational groundwork. The insight was adapting telegraph networks for burglar alarm signaling, creating an interconnected security system that led to the incorporation of American District Telegraph.

ADT serves a broad customer base, primarily homeowners and small commercial entities seeking reliable surveillance and protection. The company’s vision centers on making professionally monitored security accessible and effective for everyday life, aiming to provide peace of mind through continuous innovation in safety and security services.
