// Credentials
Every provider says “secure” and “expert.” This page is the shorter list: what Microsoft, AICPA auditors, and independent security bodies have verified about DivergeIT — and why each one matters when you’re choosing who runs your IT.
// The credentials
What each one actually is — and what it buys you as a client.
Top 1%
Microsoft ranks its U.S. partner ecosystem, and DivergeIT sits in the top 1% — Gold Partner status with deep platform certification across the Microsoft stack.
Why it matters to you
If your business runs on Microsoft 365 or Azure, this is the difference between a provider who says they know the platform and one Microsoft has already verified. That part of your due diligence is done.
SOC 2
An independent audit under the AICPA standard of how we handle security and controls — the same discipline we bring to client environments, applied to our own house first.
Why it matters to you
Your IT provider holds privileged access to your systems, so their security posture becomes yours. SOC 2 means ours has been examined by an outside auditor, not self-declared — we are audited to the standard we hold clients to.
MSSP
Certification as a managed security services provider — security operations as a core discipline, not an add-on to break-fix IT.
Why it matters to you
The team watching your environment is certified for exactly that job. When we say security is built into every layer from day one, this is the certification behind the sentence.
27+ yrs
27 years serving mid-sized businesses and enterprises across 25+ states, from three offices coast to coast — Torrance, Dallas, and Miami.
Why it matters to you
Certifications verify what we know. Retention verifies what we do: 96% of clients stay, year over year. Longevity plus retention is the one credential no provider can shortcut.
// Recognition
Certifications say we meet a standard. These say how we place against everyone else who claims the same.

// What this means for you
Microsoft, AICPA auditors, and security certifiers have already examined what most buyers have to take on faith. Your evaluation starts from verified, not from zero.
An IT provider holds privileged access to everything you protect. SOC 2 and MSSP certification mean the company behind that access is audited and certified — hiring us tightens your posture instead of loosening it.
Credentials are the entry ticket. On top of them sit the commitments with teeth: response guarantees backed by $100 credits, published pricing, and a quarterly scorecard we post even when a number stings.
A discovery call with our team, not a sales pitch. We assess your current state and show you exactly what a response guarantee — backed by a $100 credit — would mean for your operations.
