CAROLINA IT

The field of information technology changes by the second, with the release of each new bit of hardware or software and with the advancement of new online threats. Staying on top of these developments takes dedication, something that Brian Blount of Carolina IT knows all about.

“I’ve been in IT since I was in college and never really stopped,” he said. “Of course, nothing I learned in college is still implemented except the ability to think like a computer.”

And the hard drive in Blount’s head is constantly filling up with cutting-edge methods and new strategies for protecting your data. You need only look at the shelf full of awards, including three consecutive Hilton Head Monthly Readers’ Choice Awards, to see that his methods work.

“It’s a local business, and we care about our customers,” he said. “That’s what we pride ourselves on. We’re here for the long haul.”
