Family office and private wealth IT in Abu Dhabi covers the systems, controls and physical safeguards that protect highly sensitive financial, legal and personal information for principals, beneficiaries and their advisors. Emirtech Technology — founded in 2018 and based at M44, Mussafah Industrial Area, Abu Dhabi — delivers this work for single-family offices, multi-family offices, private investment houses and wealth-management practices across Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. Our scope is purely technical and operational: Microsoft 365 hardening with strict conditional access and number-matching MFA, Defender for Office 365 with safe-links and safe-attachments, sensitivity labels and DLP rules tuned for financial confidentiality, mailbox journaling and third-party M365 backup with long retention. On endpoints we deploy BitLocker on every laptop, premium EDR (CrowdStrike Falcon, SentinelOne or Microsoft Defender for Endpoint P2), application allow-listing and managed patching through Intune. For the network we install FortiGate firewalls with strict VLAN segmentation separating principals, staff, guests and IoT, plus secure remote access via FortiClient ZTNA. For the office itself we install ADMCC-approved CCTV at reception and corridors with privacy-respecting placement in client meeting rooms, biometric access control on document stores, and a discreet administrative handling process for sensitive originals. We also help you prepare for PDPL technical obligations and, where relevant, ADGM Data Protection Regulation readiness. We are an ADMCC-approved CCTV contractor and a Control4 installer working with a third-party authorised dealer. We are not an SCA-licensed firm, not a CBUAE-licensed institution, not an ADGM FSRA or DIFC authorised entity, not a SIRA-licensed contractor, not ISO 27001 certified, not a NESA/ADHICS or PDPL-certified body and not a 24/7 SOC. We do not provide investment advice, custody, fiduciary services or any regulated financial activity. To plan a confidential walk-through of your office in Abu Dhabi or Al Ain, call +971 55 651 7843 or email [email protected].
Core capabilities
Strict conditional access, number-matching MFA, Defender for Office 365 with safe-links and safe-attachments, sensitivity labels and DLP rules tuned to financial documents, plus mailbox journaling and third-party M365 backup with long retention for principals and staff.
BitLocker full-disk encryption on every laptop, Intune-managed configuration profiles, premium EDR such as CrowdStrike Falcon or SentinelOne, application allow-listing, USB control and managed patching to reduce ransomware and data-theft exposure across the office.
FortiGate next-generation firewall with strict VLANs separating principals, advisors, support staff, guests and IoT, FortiClient ZTNA for remote access, web filtering, and IDS/IPS — so a compromised guest or printer cannot reach financial workstations or document servers.
ADMCC-approved CCTV at reception, corridors and document rooms with privacy-respecting placement in client meeting rooms, biometric or card access on safes and file stores, and a discreet administrative handling routine for sensitive originals and signed instruments.
We begin with a confidential walk-through of your Abu Dhabi office, a review of your current Microsoft 365 tenant, endpoints, firewall and CCTV, and a short interview with the principal's gatekeeper or chief of staff. From there we produce a written scope, an itemised written proposal and a phased rollout plan that minimises disruption to principals and advisors. Implementation is performed by named engineers under NDA, with change windows agreed in advance and a single point of contact throughout. Call +971 55 651 7843 or request a free family office IT consultation.
Additional services
Independent backup of Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams with long retention windows suited to family-office record-keeping, immutable copies, granular restore of single emails or documents, and restore tests that you can witness.
Biometric access to document safes and archive rooms, dual-control sign-out for originals, a discreet administrative routine for couriered instruments, and tamper-evident logging — so access to signed agreements, share certificates and passports is controlled and logged.
Technical mapping of personal data flows across mailboxes, file shares, HR and accounting systems, retention and deletion controls, breach-detection alerting through EDR and M365, and documentation you can hand to your legal counsel — without claiming certification we do not hold.
As a Control4 installer working with a third-party authorised dealer we extend the office posture to the principal's residence and private boardrooms — quiet automation, secure guest Wi-Fi on a dedicated VLAN, discreet CCTV and intercom, and audio-video for private meetings without exposing the family-office tenant.
Family offices and private wealth firms in Abu Dhabi operate under intense confidentiality expectations from principals, beneficiaries and counterparties. To keep our role unambiguous, we publish exactly what Emirtech delivers, what we do not deliver, what we are not, and the regulators, institutions and firms we are not affiliated with. This protects both your office and ours.
If a requirement falls outside this scope — for example, a regulated financial activity, an external ISO 27001 certification audit or 24/7 SOC monitoring — we will say so plainly and, where possible, introduce you to a specialist firm that is properly accredited for that work.
Common questions
No. Emirtech is an independent IT and low-current contractor. We are not licensed by the Securities and Commodities Authority, the Central Bank of the UAE, the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority or the DIFC Authority, and we do not provide regulated financial services. Our role is purely technical — Microsoft 365, endpoints, networks, CCTV, access control and backup — so your office can meet its own confidentiality obligations.
Yes. Before any site visit or tenant access we sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement with your office, agree the named engineers who will attend, and brief them on confidentiality expectations. The walk-through is scheduled discreetly with your chief of staff or office manager and avoids principal meeting hours where possible.
Yes. We stage conditional access, MFA, Defender policies, sensitivity labels and DLP rules in audit mode first, pilot with the IT and operations team, then enforce in agreed waves. Principals and senior advisors receive bespoke onboarding for MFA and label use, and we keep a documented rollback plan for every change.
We do not operate a 24/7 security operations centre. We deploy premium EDR (such as CrowdStrike Falcon or SentinelOne) and Microsoft Defender, configure alerting into a shared inbox or ticket queue, and respond during business hours. For 24/7 SOC services we will refer you to a properly accredited MDR provider.
ADMCC-approved CCTV is installed at reception, corridors, document stores and external entry points. Inside client meeting rooms we either omit cameras entirely or use clearly visible, recording-only-when-armed devices with signage, depending on your policy. Recording retention, access rights and review procedures are documented and signed off by the principal's office.
Call +971 55 651 7843 or email [email protected], and we will arrange a confidential walk-through of your office at M44, Mussafah Industrial Area or at your premises in Abu Dhabi or Al Ain. You can also request a free family office IT consultation and we will reply the same working day and send a written scope and itemised written proposal after the walk-through.
