ORLANDO, Fla. (Oct. 5, 2023) – Orlando City Soccer Club and the Orlando Pride today announced Atomic Data as the Proud IT Partner of both the Major League Soccer and National Women’s Soccer League clubs. The multi-year agreement is an evolution of the existing partnership, with Atomic Data serving as the Club’s Virtual CIO and Owner’s Technology Rep since 2022.
“As our industry continues to grow with both new technologies and innovation, as well as an increased need for secure and trusted IT infrastructure, having a proven and reliable partner is of incredible importance to our Club,” said Orlando City SC and Orlando Pride Chief Financial Officer, Carlos Osorio. “Through our work with Atomic Data thus far, they’ve been tremendous partners for all of our IT needs, both helping to bring best-in-class cybersecurity service to our front office while also supporting our efforts to produce a great atmosphere for City and Pride supporters. We’re looking forward to continuing our work together on current and future projects to improve our fan experience.”
Initially brought on last year to assess Orlando City SC’s technology and cybersecurity needs, Atomic Data would go on to provide a series of future-forward IT recommendations meant to put the Club and Exploria Stadium on the leading edge of sporting and large venue technology.
Beyond Exploria Stadium, Atomic Data is also supporting the Club’s front office headquarters and training facilities through the implementation of IT as a Service, bringing endpoint hardening, 24x7 network and security monitoring, and 24x7 end-user support to the organization.
