Congrats Chief!

A Commitment to Leadership: Chief Hank Graduates FBI National Academy

The Town of Montgomery is proud to announce that Chief John Hank has successfully graduated from the FBI National Academy—one of the most prestigious professional training programs for law enforcement leaders.
During his time at Quantico, Chief Hank trained alongside officers from across the country and around the world, focusing on leadership, advanced investigative techniques, and building strong partnerships to enhance public safety. The program is known for its rigorous curriculum… and its hills, which have a reputation of their own and may or may not have been tougher than some of the coursework.
“This experience challenged me both professionally and personally,” said Chief Hank. “The training pushed us to think differently about leadership, accountability, and service. I’m bringing back new ideas, stronger partnerships, and a renewed commitment to doing the job the right way for our officers and the community.”
This achievement reflects Chief Hank’s dedication to professional growth, his commitment to excellence, and his continued focus on serving the community with integrity and transparency. He returns with valuable knowledge, strengthened relationships, and a renewed energy to lead.
Please join us in congratulating Chief Hank on this outstanding accomplishment.

A ransomware crew called "The Gentlemen" is hitting small and mid-sized businesses hard — and they're good at it. They slip in quietly, shut off your security software, steal your files, and lock up everything they can touch. Then they demand a ransom to give it back.

The old approach — a firewall at the edge and hoping nothing gets through — doesn't stop this anymore.

At MCS Tech, we take a different approach called Zero Trust. The idea is simple: nothing on your network is automatically trusted. Every person, device, and connection has to prove it belongs there, and even then it only gets access to what it actually needs.

Here's what that means for your business:

Unauthorized programs can't run — including the tools attackers use to switch off your security.

A stolen password isn't enough — getting in takes more than one cracked login.

One hacked account can't reach everything — it's boxed into a small corner, not your whole network.

Your systems are separated — so an attack in one place can't spread to your servers, files, and backups all at once.

We watch for trouble around the clock — if security tools get shut off or files start encrypting, we get alerted and contain it fast.

Your backups are protected — so even in a worst case, you get back to work without paying a dime.

Zero Trust isn't a product you buy off a shelf. It's a strategy we build and manage for you — which means less risk, easier compliance, and a lot fewer sleepless nights.

If you run a business in the Hudson Valley and want to see what this would look like for you, comment "Zero Trust" or send us a message. We'll set up a short, no-pressure look at where you stand.

FortiBleed shows that thousands of Fortinet firewalls and VPNs have had admin credentials exposed, giving attackers a potential direct path into company networks.

An MSSP like MCS Tech Services monitors vendor threats like this, quickly rotates credentials, enforces MFA, hardens firewall settings, and hunts for suspicious access so you’re not scrambling when the next vendor incident hits.
