Akal Security, Inc. is a security company which has federal contracts to guard immigration detention centers, federal courthouses, NASA facilities, federal buildings in Washington, D.C., and numerous embassies under construction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=American Sikhs Run Billion-Dollar Security Firm : NPR )〕 Akal Security and a subsidiary company, Coastal International Security, have received over $1 billion in federal security contracts.〔 ==History== Akal Security, Inc. was founded in 1980 after Gurutej Khalsa, an American convert to Sikhism, found that, although he had extensive experience in law enforcement, "his beard and turban prevented him from getting a job". The company was started with a $1,200 loan from one of its founders. Akal Security is one of a number of companies run by followers of the Sikh Dharma sangat.〔 Akal Security had a large expansion in contracts after the September 11th attacks because it was able to recruit a large number of former law enforcement and military personnel. According to the New York Times, the company has benefited from the Army's low-price approach to determining contracts because Akal Security has low overhead and good past performances.〔
