Verisure is a world leader in monitored security solutions. Operating under three brands (Verisure, Securitas Direct and Arlo), the Company serves more than 5.0 million customers in 17 countries across Europe and Latin America. From 2000 to 2022, the Company has grown its customer portfolio at an average of 17% annually – growing every single quarter, in every single country. The group is #1 in 9 of its top 10 markets and is on average 3.2 times larger than its nearest competitor across its footprint.

Verisure’s core offering is a monitored security system that incorporates sensors (motion, fire, humidity) and a central control panel that are remotely monitored by Verisure 24/7. Verisure first responders investigate incidents, contact customers and dispatch guard, police, fire brigade and ambulance when needed. In addition, the company offers ‘smart home’ functionality and services. These are enabled by innovations around video, light control, temperature control, elderly care, etc. The products connect through a secure gateway and offer video monitoring, access control, water leakage/moisture detection, among others – all mobile app-controlled.

Verisure is majority-owned by leading private equity firm Hellman & Friedman. Our sponsors have invested heavily in accelerating the company’s innovation and talent pipeline. Following years of growth, the company has now embarked on a transformation under a new high calibre leadership team to position itself for the next phase of growth. Verisure also continues to expand internationally and has opened offices in Peru, Italy, the UK, Germany, Argentina, and Ireland in just the last few years.

Entrepreneurial and pioneering spirit

The business has enjoyed consistent double-digit top and bottom-line growth over the past 20 years. Verisure was the first company in the industry to introduce voice-based SMS/GSM transmission, the first to use “two-way voice” (enabling a direct conversation with the consumer), the first to add image verification (to assist in assessing risk and in dramatically reducing false alarms) and the first to enable home control via a mobile application. This kind of innovation has led to Verisure enjoying industry leading customer retention.

Verisure takes responsibility for the whole value chain - from product development, design and sales to installation, service and 24/7 professional monitoring, verification and response. This enables us to innovate where others cannot. Unlike many competitors, we keep most work in-house to guarantee premium quality.
