The year is 1999. Our founder and CEO Raj takes one more look over his electronics retail store’s inventory before he locks up, excited to open the store in a week’s time. In what would become a massive overnight theft, Raj awoke the next morning to an empty warehouse and hundreds of thousands of dollars in stolen inventory. To prevent this from happening again, he reached out to local video security providers, only to find out an entry-level system require a professional to install and operate, would be extremely unsightly, and cost $10,000.

Upset at this situation, Raj channeled his frustration and founded Defender to create easy to set up and use well-designed, and inexpensive products. For over 20 years now, we’ve been passionate about building robust, reliable, and innovative security solutions—to empower you with the ultimate Peace of Mind.
