Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to work its way through a network. For this reason, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to become aware of a break-in and are less able to organize a quick and coordinated response. The more lateral movement ransomware can manage within a target's system, the longer it takes to recover basic IT services and damaged files and the more data can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to guide you to complete the time-critical first phase in responding to a ransomware attack by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware experts can assist businesses to identify and isolate breached devices and guard clean resources from being compromised. If your system has been penetrated by any version of ransomware, act fast. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

Introduction to Security Services
Managing computer security plus preparation for restoring critical data and functions following a security breach demands a continual process involving a variety of tools and processes. Progent's security consultants can support your business at all levels in your efforts to guard your information system, from security evaluation to creating a comprehensive security program. Key areas covered by Progent's security engineers include Security Planning and Prevention, Information Restoration and Security Forensics, and Outsourced Protection from E-mail-Borne Attacks.
Planning and Building Secure Environments
Every company should have a carefully thought out security strategy that incorporates both preventive and responsive steps.

The reactive strategy specifies procedures to assist security staff to inventory the losses caused by an attack, remediate the damage, document the experience, and restore business activity as soon as possible.

Progent can configure auditing software, define and execute a safe IT architecture, and propose processes and policies to enhance the safety of your network. Progent's security professionals are available to help you to configure a firewall, design protected online and mobile connectivity to email and information, and install an effective virtual private network.
