Founded on decades of experience, ADT Commercial is a leading provider of enterprise security, fire, and life safety solutions to meet the complex needs of its commercial and National Accounts clients.

ADT Commercial is built on the foundation of customer service excellence and strengthened by a broad portfolio of security, fire, and risk management solutions, supported by a nationwide network of dedicated commercial service offices and monitoring centers. ADT Commercial continues to enhance its technical capabilities, expand its geographic reach, and elevate its customer service capabilities through a series of more than 15 strategic acquisitions further bolstering its premier National Accounts organization.

“I firmly believe in our tagline, ‘Powered by Experience. Driven by Excellence,’ and our ability to bring together the best talent from the companies that are now part of the ADT Commercial umbrella speaks to our commitment to lead with excellence and a focus on service,” said Dan Bresingham, Executive Vice President, ADT Commercial. “To help further fuel our growth, we have formed a best-in-class leadership team of experienced professionals to help lead us into this new era.”

Following the merger with Protection 1 in 2016, ADT invested in key acquisitions, including Red Hawk Fire and Security in December 2018, which greatly enhanced its ability to deliver enterprise-level fire, life safety, financial services, and healthcare solutions nationwide. Together, these additions along with other recent acquisitions have allowed ADT Commercial to continue to build its comprehensive security offerings while being able to provide more nimble, local delivery.

Throughout this process, ADT Commercial has assembled top system integration talent to provide a holistic approach to the problems that life safety, fire, risk, and security leaders are now facing and must prepare for in the future.

Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
