The day-to-day

Why sport and media put IT under pressure

The work is public, the deadlines are fixed and the content is valuable. IT has to keep up with all three.

Heavy files, short turnarounds

Video, audio and design files are large, and they need to move between editors, producers and clients without anyone waiting.

Teams on the move

Match days, shoots and events put people in places where connectivity is unpredictable. Remote access has to be simple and secure.

Content before release

Unreleased footage, contracts and embargoed material are valuable. Access should be limited to the people involved and be traceable.

No second take

A live schedule does not wait for IT. Problems need fixing quickly, ideally before anyone notices.

The big picture

From the venue to the edit suite

Content, people and connections spread across many places still need one secure, managed backbone.

Questions

Common questions

Can you support freelancers and contractors?

Yes. We can give contributors secure access to the systems they need and remove it as soon as a project ends, without anything being left on personal devices.

Can you provide connectivity for a venue or a studio?

We supply leased internet and design the internal network around it, so capacity matches real use such as uploads, streaming and many devices at once. We would start by understanding how the site is used.

How do you protect content that has not been released?

Through limited access, multi-factor authentication, encrypted storage and backups, with clear records of who can reach what. The detail depends on how your team works, and we scope it with you.
