Tyco International was a prominent global corporation specializing in security solutions and fire protection before its eventual merger with Johnson Controls in 2016. Founded in 1960, the company expanded through a massive acquisition strategy, at one point managing thousands of subsidiaries across various industrial sectors. However, its history is marked by a significant corporate scandal in 2002, involving massive theft and financial fraud by its top executives. Following these legal crises, the company underwent several strategic breakups and reorganizations to restore shareholder value and ethical standards. Additionally, the firm's legacy includes a complex environmental record involving multiple violations of clean air and water regulations. Throughout its existence, Tyco evolved from a small research firm into a massive multi-industrial conglomerate that ultimately split into several independent entities.
