MC Services has become the Apple training center of choice for me. The “hands on” experience of the instructor adds even more value to the courses.
Protect Critical Data Assets and Your Reputation with a Trusted Cyber Security Company
Organizations are at a greater risk than ever before of targeted cyber attacks. Remote-based work, the shift to the cloud, as well as a proliferation of connected devices have all provided sophisticated cybercriminals with many possibilities for attack. MC Services helps you protect sensitive information and keep your business up and running. Our unique blend of education, training and planning prepares your employees to spot common signs of network attacks.
We Provide Full-Range of Cybersecurity Services
Antivirus & Malware Security
Antivirus and malware security services help protect computer systems and networks from malware, including viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and ransomware. Different features often include:
- Real-time scanning
- Signature-based detection
- Behavior-based detection
- Cloud-based protection
- Automatic updates
- Remote management
Because no single solution can provide complete protection against all types of malware, we recommend having multiple, updated layers of security in place to improve effectiveness. Regular security audits or penetration testing can also help identify weak spots in your systems.
Phishing Prevention
Phishing is a type of social engineering attack that uses emails, text messages, or phone calls to trick individuals into providing sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial information. To prevent phishing attacks, organizations can implement several best practices:
- Employee education
- Spam filters
- Email authentication
- URL scanning
- Two-factor authentication
- Monitor network traffic
- Simulated phishing exercises
Phishing attempts are becoming more and more sophisticated, so organizations should keep their anti-phishing measures updated and regularly review them. Employees should also be encouraged to report any suspicious emails or phone calls to the IT or security department.
Disaster Recovery Planning
An IT disaster recovery plan (DRP) is a documented process for restoring normal business operations after a disaster or disruption. It includes procedures for backing up and restoring critical data, procedures for recovering hardware and software systems, and procedures for ensuring personnel and resources are available to carry out the plan. An IT DRP minimizes the impact of a disruption on the organization’s operations and ensures critical functions can resume as quickly as possible. The development and testing of a DRP is an important aspect of a comprehensive risk management strategy.
Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Assessment
Penetration testing (often called “pen testing”) and vulnerability assessment is a simulated cyber attack on a computer system, network, or web application to evaluate the security of the system. It is a proactive method of testing the organization’s defenses by attempting to identify weaknesses before they can be exploited by attackers.
There are two primary types of penetration testing:
- External testing (website or public-facing network)
- Internal testing (private intranet or internal servers)
There are also two primary types of vulnerability assessments:
- Network vulnerability assessment (network infrastructure, such as routers, switches, and firewalls)
- Application vulnerability assessment (web applications, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and file inclusion)
Then, the process of testing usually follows these steps:
- Reconnaissance
- Vulnerability scanning
- Manual testing
- Exploitation
- Reporting
Penetration testing should be performed by experienced and qualified professionals, as it can cause damage to systems if not done properly. It should also be done with the proper authorization and with a scope that has been agreed upon. Remember, penetration testing is not a one-time event, and should be performed regularly to ensure that the organization’s defenses are up-to-date.
The training at MC Services was superb. My network’s security and the reliability hasn’t been better. Thanks MC Services for a great learning experience!
Nathan
He has exceeded our expectations in every way, not only in competency, but also in his responsiveness and customer care. Moreover, we have had the benefit of the entire company’s knowledge base when complex issues or needs arise.

The design work has been surprisingly efficient. MC Services has exhibited an uncanny ability to understand the acronyms utilized in our niche business and that understanding has helped us to communicate much more efficiently. I haven’t had to invest valuable development time educating them on the nuance of our business….they just got it!
Will
…pleasantly surprised at how much I learned in this three day class. The coursework was very fast paced and informative. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and was able to provide additional help and information that was not covered in the coursework. MC Services provided me with the framework I needed to successfully implement 15 MacBook laptops and 2 servers into our Windows network. I am now more confident with supporting and working with the Mac OS and look forward to learning more in the future.
Adam
MC Services has changed how we do business. We are more agile, efficient, and successful than we ever have been because of this FileMaker solution.
Jeff
…a small classroom atmosphere…more one-on-one interaction from the instructor. I highly recommend this class and MC Services in Pewaukee, Wisconsin.
Phil
We brought MC Services in after we decided to move on from our last IT partner. Their highly-capable people were with us through every step of the transition and able to figure out our business complexities. Ultimately, they offered a managed system that has been incredibly critical to our company’s success.
