GE Security
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GE Security, a division of General Electric Inc's GE Enterprise Solutions, provides intrusion alarm systems, integrated security systems, fire systems, access control, video surveillance, explosives and illegal drug detection, key control/lockbox, fiber optic transmission, machine guarding, and more. GE Security is based in Bradenton, FL.
GE Security is primarily aimed at businesses (medium to large), organizations, and governments, but products from GE are available for both residents and small businesses. GE Security includes different families of detection systems, web-based surveillance systems, and aviation security products, such as handheld and walk-thru explosive/narcotics portals. Much of General Electric's fire systems came from the acquisition of Edwards Systems Technology from SPX Corporation in May 2005.
On November 12th, 2009, GE Security announced that it had signed a definitive agreement with United Technologies Corporation for UTC to acquire GE’s Security business for $1.82B. The transaction has been approved by the Boards of both companies, and will be subject to customary closing conditions including regulatory approvals. [1]
