Samsung, ADT team up on home security kit, competing with Nest

Only about 22 percent of U.S. homeowners have a professionally monitored home-security system, and most of those have been installed by the companies, said Parks Associates senior analyst Brad Russell. ADT has about a quarter of that market, leading competitors Vivint, Comcast’s Xfinity Home and Moni.

The overall market has remained flat for several years, but should generate $15 billion in revenue this year, Russell said.
