Securitas Direct Security Alarm Service

Securitas Direct is a leading security services brand that originated in Sweden in 1988 as a division of Securitas AB. Over several decades, it evolved into a prominent provider of monitored alarm systems for homes and small businesses across Europe and South America. While the brand carries the legacy name of its original parent company, it operated as an independent entity after being spun off and was subsequently acquired by Hellman & Friedman in 2011.

Today, the brand operates as part of Verisure, which is headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. The company manufactures several of its proprietary hardware components in various locations, with significant research and development centers in Sweden and Spain. In many markets, including Spain (where it is widely recognized), the company maintains a massive infrastructure for monitoring and rapid response services, positioning it as a dominant player in the private security sector.
