What's the Problem?

According to 2 recent lawsuits filed in U.S. District Court in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, ADT technician Telesforo Aviles added his personal email address to customer accounts during service visits, giving him the ability to access live security camera feeds, download videos, and view photos of clients in their own homes.

The problem was found when an ADT customer in DeSoto, Texas, reported an unauthorized email address associated with their account in the ADT mobile app. The company launched an investigation and found that Aviles' personal email address had been linked to more than 220 customer accounts.

Aviles was fired by ADT as soon as the violations were discovered and is now the subject of a statewide police investigation.

“We deeply regret what happened," said Jamie Haenggi, chief customer officer for ADT. “Customers trust ADT with their safety and security, and we understand that this jeopardizes that trust, and it is certainly and entirely unacceptable.”

Haenggi went on to say that ADT is reviewing customer accounts to ensure more people’s privacy is not at risk, and that the company has implemented additional measures to prevent future security breaches.
