Security for people and places

Protect the people you work with and the places you run.

Most breaches start with someone close to the target: an assistant's reused password, a producer's cloud drive, an unsecured camera on the office network. Amin Security closes those gaps, online and on site.

Keep unreleased work, accounts, payouts and family privacy safe across everyone who has a key.

Artists, teams & family offices

Most artist hacks don't start with the artist.

Every manager, producer, engineer and assistant holds a key to what you're building together. We secure the whole circle, so unreleased work, accounts and payouts stay yours.

Four things we lock down

Unreleased work

Fewer copies in fewer places, named access for each collaborator, and links that expire.

Accounts

Hardware keys and passkeys, a team password vault, and carrier locks against SIM swaps.

Payments

Call-back verification on a known number before any payout or bank detail changes.

Devices

Encrypted laptops and drives, automatic backups, and remote lock if gear goes missing.

For small businesses, non-profits and property managers. Most clients start with an assessment. From there we scope only what your site and budget call for.

For teams without a full-time security hire. Endpoint protection, email and account security, tested backups, and a plan for when something goes wrong.

MFA & SSOEDRBackupsIncident response

Cameras, alarms & access control

For offices, storefronts and community spaces. Coverage designed around your floor plan, every device labeled, remote viewing your staff can actually use.

IP camerasAlarmsBadge entryAlerts
NETWORK

Who you'll work with

Musa Qadir Bey

I run IT and security for a nonprofit across identity, devices, email and cloud. Before that, I spent three years in the security operations center at Meta HQ.

I also manage a music producer, so I know how creative teams actually share files, logins and money, and why security that slows a session down never sticks.

You work with me directly. Every engagement is confidential.

Based in Oakland, I'm proud to serve the Bay Area's artists, creatives and Black professionals, along with the organizations and buildings they rely on.

Amin means trustworthy. In Arabic, amīn is the one you entrust things to. That's the job.

Find your biggest exposure in 15 minutes.
