ADT

A former employee had gained unauthorized access to the accounts of 220 customers, all of them located in the Dallas area.

ADT was subjected to two lawsuits, both seeking class-action status.

The former ADT technician Telesforo Aviles installed indoor security cameras at homes across Dallas and added his personal email address to the accounts and could easily access the cameras and spy on customers.

He did this repeatedly over a period of seven years to hundreds of customers.

ADT was accused of failing to fix vulnerabilities in its ADT Pulse software, which the company relies on to access the security system, including cameras and smart locks, installed in each customer's home.
