Technical Information

Access to ADT4T only requires an internet connection, web browser, and an active CASS login.  It does not require a network connection.  Because each software package has its own set of additional system requirements, we suggest you review the system requirements for each package by clicking the ’System Requirements’ link on the product page (located below the product’s description).
