Founded in 2017 as FM Digital Solutions, DarkHorse IT is the culmination of founder Jeff Carney’s lifelong passion for technology. Raised in the tech hub of San Jose, California, Jeff’s journey began at 13 with bulletin board systems and building custom computers, driven by self-taught expertise and formal IT education.

Initially operating under a break-fix model, the company evolved to meet the growing demand for proactive security and productivity tools, rebranding as DarkHorse IT to reflect this transformation.

Today, DarkHorse IT provides managed IT solutions for businesses and residential clients, addressing the increasing need for enterprise-grade security in all settings. Services include automated patch management, AI-driven security software, robust backups, and multi-layered firewalls, complemented by partnerships with leaders like Microsoft.
