Show day never waits on IT.
Owning IT is in our nature.
Render servers, shared drives and the crew’s laptops just work, on the lot or on location, and your content stays yours.
Sound familiar?
- “Delivery is in three hours and the render server is down.”
- “A cut leaked before release, and nobody knows how.”
- “Half the crew is on location and nobody can reach the shared drive.”
What you get instead
- Render servers and shared drives are up on delivery day.
- You know exactly who can see unreleased work.
- Crews on location reach their files from anywhere.
Your deadline is ours too.

DivergeIT has built partnerships in entertainment and sports for more than 20 years — including work with organizations like United Talent Agency, the Kia Forum, and the LA Clippers ecosystem — protecting content, keeping productions moving, and supporting event-day operations.

How each solution helps
What you get, built for entertainment & sports
AI first, on a managed and secured foundation. Each one links to its full spec sheet.
AmplifyAI
Use AI on scripts, schedules and crew workflows without leaking a cut: shadow-AI detection shows which unapproved AI tools are in use, Plus blocks them, and a Forward Deployed Engineer can build agents for production work and hand them back managed.
ManageIT
Pro gives you a 24/7/365 service desk for incidents, so show day, game night and the 2 AM render all reach a live expert. Template-based provisioning keeps crew onboarding and offboarding fast.
SecureIT
MXDR and ITDR watch every device and account around the clock and contain device-code phishing before it spreads. Plus protects phones and remote crews with always-on VPN; Pro adds LAN zero-trust segmentation around the content itself.
AugmentIT
Already have a studio or team IT lead? Keep them in charge and add a 24/7 Tier 1 service desk, infrastructure monitoring or SecureIT modules around them.

What we’re catching
1+ month
one attacker held access at a national music organization
A national music organization had two device-code phishing compromises. One attacker kept access for more than a month before being detected.
Device-code phishing walks straight past MFA. You need someone watching identities 24/7, not just devices.
From DivergeIT’s September 2026 SecureIT Core rollout, when SecureIT Core was switched on for one month, at no cost, for every client that didn’t already have it. Client names withheld.

FAQ
Entertainment & Sports questions, answered
Does DivergeIT have experience in entertainment and sports?
More than 20 years of it — including work with organizations like United Talent Agency, the Kia Forum, and the LA Clippers ecosystem. We protect content, keep productions moving, and support event-day operations, because a down system on event day is not an IT ticket; it is a headline.
How do you protect high-value content from leaks?
Content and asset protection is designed in: access controls, vendor and guest network segmentation, secure collaboration with distributed talent, and 24/7 human-led detection and response in every SecureIT tier, with identity threat detection that locks compromised accounts before stolen access becomes a leak.
Can you support event-day and production-critical operations?
Yes — that is the work we build for: event-day and production-critical support, high-performance storage and transfer workflows, and infrastructure that scales for production spikes. ManageIT Pro backs it with a 24/7/365 service desk for incidents and 15-minute critical response, and a call or chat reaches a live expert within 5 minutes, or you get a $100 credit.
What does managed IT cost for a studio or agency?
Pricing is public, published in full on our pricing page. ManageIT has three per-user tiers, and production-critical teams typically choose Pro for around-the-clock coverage and SecureIT Plus advanced security. Published starting prices assume a 3-year agreement.
How do studios and teams keep unreleased content out of AI tools?
By seeing where it goes and blocking what isn’t approved. AmplifyAI detects shadow-AI use across your tenant, and on Plus blocks unapproved AI sites at the network edge, while your approved tools stay governed and logged in your own workspace.
Can DivergeIT support productions and events at night and on weekends?
Yes. ManageIT Pro includes a 24/7/365 service desk for incidents with a 15-minute response to critical issues, and the 24/7 SOC in every SecureIT tier watches devices and accounts around the clock.
