Linux Mint: Permissions from transferring files from NTFS formatted drive to EXT4 formatted drive

I was wondering if there is a way for Linux Mint to automatically set the permissions to 755 for directories and 644 for files for transferring data from an NTFS formatted drive to and EXT4 formatted drive? I noticed that CachyOS can do this by default but in Linux Mint the permissions are set to 777 by default once the transfer of data os complete but I want it to be set automatically to 755 for directories and 644 for files which I read is the Linux default for permissions. Also I backup to an NTFS formatted external SSD and if I restore again, I don't want to manually run chmod each time I restore from an NTFS to an EXT4 drive after the restore to get the default Linux permissions for directories and files for EXT4 formatted drives. Is there a setting I need to change or a file I need to edit to do what I'm asking for?
