Brinks Home says its products and services were not affected, which is a careful way of saying the alarm still beeps while your address and payment details get auctioned. Parent company Monitronics has filed for bankruptcy twice since 2019, so nobody should expect a serious remediation budget. The lock on the front door was never the weak point.
