Planning and Building Secure Networks
Any company should develop a thoroughly thought out security strategy that incorporates both preventive and responsive steps. The pre-attack strategy is a collection of steps that works to reduce security gaps.

Progent can advise you how to incorporate protection into your business operations. Progent can install auditing software, define and execute a secure IT infrastructure, and propose processes and policies that will maximize the safety of your computing environment.

Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to steal its way across a target network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are commonly unleashed on weekends and at night, when support staff are likely to take longer to recognize a break-in and are less able to organize a quick and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware can make within a victim's network, the more time it takes to restore basic operations and damaged files and the more data can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to help organizations to complete the time-critical first steps in mitigating a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's online ransomware experts can help you to locate and isolate breached devices and guard undamaged assets from being penetrated.
