The company was founded in Joliette by an industrial technician who saw the opportunity to replace analog video recording systems with systems using digital image technology recorded on hard disks by computers; this significantly increased the efficiency of CCTV systems.

 

The acquisition of the Econo-Securité an e-commerce business in 2007 and of Accès-Vision in 2008 increased the customer base with customers in many sectors such as drugstores, groceries, retailers, municipal and governmental institutions, and many others.

 

In 2014, the company began offering intrusion alarm systems and access control systems.

 

In 2019, a new acquisition diversifies the company's services with the strategic purchase of Les Entreprises SDN, experts in the installation of structured cabling and other equipment. SDN has a well-established network of partners to provide rapid emergency service throughout the province of Quebec and New Brunswick. The territory covered by the offer of services aimed at commercial, industrial and institutional clients covers a large part of Eastern Canada; although the company is now located in Brossard, on the south shore of Montreal. The company now has a little more than twenty permanent employees.

 

In 2023, Sécur-Icare and Alarme SL merged their expertise to form a group that will become a key player in the security market in Quebec and New Brunswick.  This association will provide a full range of security solutions for commercial, municipal and institutional organizations. Customers will benefit from the synergy of the skills and resources of both companies, as well as their expertise in the design, installation and maintenance of high quality security systems. 

 

The era through which Secur-Icare is passed was tumultuous in video surveillance with the transition from "black and white" to "color", from tape recording of analog systems to systems that we know now, the digital with artificial intelligence.
