Not only is the ADT Pulse a remote security system, but it also acts as a home automation system, as well. That is, you control your home security whenever and wherever you want. With ADT home security alarm monitoring, you're always connected. Our nationwide Customer Monitoring Centers are backed by powerful equipment with secure communications links. Should a connection to one monitoring center ever be interrupted due to adverse conditions, one of our other centers will promptly take over the home security alarm monitoring.
