Vernon & Greater Hartford, Connecticut
Managed IT Services in Vernon & Greater Hartford, Connecticut
A decade of dedicated IT support for Connecticut businesses. Formerly RAD Computing, now delivering managed IT with the expanded capabilities of BrightWorks IT.
Connecticut IT Support with a Personal Touch
Formerly RAD Computing, now part of the BrightWorks IT family. RAD Computing earned its reputation in the Greater Hartford area by doing something increasingly rare in the IT industry: showing up, explaining things in plain language, and treating every client's business as if it mattered — because it does. When RAD joined BrightWorks IT, the founding team stayed. The technicians who know your server room by heart still answer when you call. What changed is the depth of resources behind them.
The Greater Hartford corridor is home to a diverse mix of small manufacturers, professional services firms, and healthcare practices. Connecticut's regulatory environment adds another layer — state privacy laws, insurance industry requirements, and healthcare compliance obligations all intersect in this market. RAD Computing learned to navigate that complexity over a decade of hands-on client work. BrightWorks IT builds on that knowledge with dedicated compliance specialists, a 24/7 security operations center, and cloud engineering capabilities that expand what's possible for Connecticut businesses.
Our Vernon office serves as the hub for Greater Hartford operations, but our support footprint extends throughout Hartford County, Tolland County, and into Middlesex and New Haven counties. Whether you're a manufacturer in East Hartford or an accounting firm in Glastonbury, our team is close enough to be on-site when it matters and equipped to handle most issues remotely when it doesn't.

Learn MoreIndustries We Serve in Greater Hartford
Manufacturing
Aerospace component makers, plastics manufacturers, and precision metal shops along the I-84 corridor. Connecticut manufacturing has a long history and increasingly strict technology requirements — from ITAR compliance for defense-related work to quality management systems that depend on reliable data infrastructure. We manage the IT that connects engineering, production, and administration while keeping each environment properly segmented and secured.
Professional Services
Accounting firms, insurance agencies, wealth management practices, and consulting companies across the Greater Hartford region. Connecticut's financial services concentration means these firms face heightened scrutiny around data protection and client confidentiality. We implement and maintain the technical controls — encrypted communications, access management, audit logging — that satisfy both regulators and clients.
Healthcare
Primary care practices, dental offices, physical therapy groups, and outpatient clinics throughout Hartford and Tolland counties. We handle HIPAA compliance from both the technical and administrative sides — deploying the security controls, configuring the audit trails, and helping practices develop the policies and procedures that auditors look for. Our team has supported Connecticut healthcare organizations through multiple compliance cycles.
"RAD Computing was our IT provider for seven years before they became BrightWorks IT. The people didn't change — Kevin still answers the phone. But now we have a full cybersecurity program, quarterly strategy meetings with a vCIO, and our compliance documentation is in order for the first time. The evolution has been remarkable."
