MKS Makes a Big Industry Splash at ISC West 2015

Kicking off their 30th year as a company, the newly rebranded MKS (Micro Key Solutions) made a big splash within the industry during ISC West 2015.  The first recognition was for MKS President, Victoria Ferro who was selected by the Women’s Security Council as one of the Woman of the Year in the Security Industry.  Each year the WSC hand selects a group of Women who have made a significant impact not only to the security industry, but the business sphere and community.   The WSC is the most recognized network of security professionals that is constantly promoting and recognizing women doing great things within the industry. 

“Receiving this award means a great deal to me,” said MKS President Victoria Ferro.  “The WSC has always done an amazing job of recognizing women in this often male dominated industry and I am truly humbled to share this award with the other women who were honored this year.  It is a big honor to be part of this great group of inspiring women of past and future winners of this award.”

With this great start to their 30th year anniversary, MKS doesn’t want to stay complacent. They released the new version of their Millennium Series, Stark, numerous upcoming industry shows as well as a few other exciting things planned for the remainder of the year!
