The platform built by
a CNC engineer.
Drive Network Support was built from 20+ years of real-world frustration — too much time lost between software, hardware, network, firewall, antivirus, VLANs, DNS and nslookup, with no clear owner. The SEG Platform was created to improve visibility and stop the blame. We built the solution.
Our Mission
Drive Network Support (DNS) is a UK technology company built around the SEG Platform — with a difference: we genuinely understand CNC manufacturing.
Most IT providers stop at the office wall. Most CNC vendors focus on hardware and ignore the IT network. DNS was built to close that gap — working alongside internal IT teams and MSPs with deep expertise in legacy manufacturing systems, from Windows XP CNC controllers to Industry 4.0 connectivity.
Our mission is to protect businesses, empower communities, and create opportunities through technology. Every contract we win, every ticket we close, and every machine we secure funds the DNS Academy — a dual-career programme combining IT training with football scholarships.
Our Hybrid Identity
DNS-CCN is not just an IT company. It is a platform company, an education company, and a gateway company — all at once.
The Industrial Gateway
Connecting legacy machines — from Windows 3.11 CNC controllers to modern cloud dashboards — safely and reliably.
The Academy
The only programme in the UK combining elite football scholarship development with world-class IT and engineering education.
The Human Platform
Empowering engineers, operators, and students through managed IT services, expert support and career-changing education.
