Carlsbad, CA and Tysons, VA - April 5, 2016 - Nortek Security & Control LLC, a Nortek Company (NASDAQ: NTK) and leader in the security, smart home and wellness technology markets, together with Alarm.com (NASDAQ: ALRM), the leading platform solution for the connected home and business, announced a technology integration for the launch of the new 2GIG® GC3 home security and automation system.

The new 2GIG® GC3 home security and automation system launched this year exclusively featuring Alarm.com's cloud-based services.
