Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to work its way across a target network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are commonly launched on weekends and late at night, when support staff may take longer to become aware of a breach and are less able to mount a quick and forceful defense. The more lateral progress ransomware is able to manage inside a target's network, the longer it will require to restore basic IT services and scrambled files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to help you to carry out the urgent first phase in responding to a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware experts can help you to identify and isolate breached servers and endpoints and guard clean assets from being compromised. If your network has been breached by any strain of ransomware, don't panic. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
Our Network Has Been Hacked: What Are We Supposed to Do?
In case you are currently experiencing a security emergency other than ransomware, visit Progent's Urgent Remote Technical Support to learn how to get immediate aid. Progent maintains a team of seasoned network security experts who offer remote and on-premises support that includes threat containment, mitigation, restoration, forensics, and hardening of your cybersecurity profile to guard against future exploits.
For businesses who have planned in advance for an attack, the formal post-attack handling model outlined by GIAC (Global Information Assurance Certification) is Progent's recommended method of responding to a serious security incident.
Introduction to Security Support Services
Managing computer security as well as preparation for restoring vital information and systems after a security breach demands an on-going program involving an array of technologies and processes. Progent's certified security professionals can assist your business at any level in your efforts to protect your information system, ranging from security audits to creating a comprehensive security program. Some areas supported by Progent's security consultants include Planning and Prevention, Information Restoration and Security Forensics, and Managed Filtering of Email-Based Attacks.
Planning and Building Protected Environments
Any organization should have a thoroughly thought out security plan that incorporates both proactive and reactive steps. The pre-attack strategy is a set of steps that works to reduce security gaps. The post-attack strategy defines procedures to assist security staff to inventory the losses resulting from an attack, repair the damage, document the event, and revive business activity as quickly as feasible. Progent can show you how to incorporate protection into your business operations. Progent can install scanning software, define and execute a safe IT architecture, and recommend processes and policies that will optimize the safety of your network. Progent's security experts are ready to assist you to configure a firewall, deploy protected offsite connectivity to email and data, and configure an effective virtual private network (VPN).
