Answers to the most common questions about our wholesale central station, certifications, and how professional 24/7 alarm monitoring works.
What does Scutum Digital do?
Scutum Digital is a wholesale alarm monitoring central station. We provide 24/7 professional monitoring of burglary, fire, video, PERS, and IoT systems on behalf of alarm dealers across North America. As part of the global Scutum Group, we are UL Listed, TMA 5 Diamond Certified, and NYC Fire (FDNY) Approved.
What is central station monitoring and how does it work?
Central station monitoring means a secure, professionally staffed facility watches your alarm signals 24/7. When a sensor is triggered, the signal reaches our operators in seconds. They verify the event, follow the account's response plan, and dispatch police, fire, or medical services as needed — day or night, every day of the year.
What does it mean that Scutum Digital is UL Listed and TMA 5 Diamond Certified?
UL Listed means our central station is independently inspected and certified by Underwriters Laboratories to strict operational and reliability standards. TMA Five Diamond is the monitoring industry’s highest certification, re-earned every year, and requires 100% certified operators, rigorous quality standards, and a commitment to reducing false dispatches. Together they signal top-tier, independently verified monitoring.
What types of alarms and systems does Scutum Digital monitor?
We monitor virtually everything: intrusion (burglar) alarms, fire and life-safety systems, video surveillance, PERS medical alerts, environmental sensors, and connected IoT devices. We support all major manufacturers and communication paths — IP, cellular, and radio. If you can sell it, we can monitor it.
Does Scutum Digital sell alarm systems directly to homeowners or businesses?
No. Scutum Digital is a wholesale monitoring partner for professional alarm dealers, not a direct-to-consumer alarm company. If you are a homeowner or business owner, we can connect you with one of our trusted dealers. If you are an alarm dealer, we provide the monitoring, technology, and support behind your accounts.
Where does Scutum Digital provide monitoring services?
Scutum Digital monitors accounts across the United States and North America from our fully redundant central station in Staten Island, New York, and we hold the state licenses required to operate nationwide. Our facility is built with full redundancy so monitoring continues without interruption.
Can I move my existing accounts to Scutum Digital without replacing equipment?
In most cases, yes. Compatible systems can typically be transferred to our central station without new hardware — the communicator is released and re-registered under Scutum Digital monitoring. Our onboarding team handles bulk account transfers to make the changeover smooth for dealers and their customers.
How do I become a Scutum Digital dealer?
Becoming a dealer is simple. Reach out through our Become a Dealer page or call (866) 494-6414 to get started. Dealers receive competitive wholesale pricing, a dedicated dealer portal, marketing resources, and 24/7 monitoring backed by more than 45 years of experience.
What makes Scutum Digital different from other monitoring companies?
Scutum Digital combines more than 45 years as a family-owned central station with the scale and resources of the global Scutum Group. Our facility is fully redundant and award-winning — named TMA Monitoring Center of the Year — our operators are fully certified, and our dealer-first model means responsive support, transparent pricing, and technology that helps dealers grow recurring revenue.
