Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way across a target network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when support personnel may be slower to recognize a break-in and are less able to organize a rapid and forceful response.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to help organizations to carry out the time-critical first phase in responding to a ransomware attack by putting out the fire. Progent's online ransomware experts can assist businesses to locate and isolate breached servers and endpoints and guard undamaged assets from being penetrated.
