Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to work its way through a network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically unleashed on weekends and late at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to recognize a break-in and are least able to mount a rapid and coordinated defense. The more lateral progress ransomware is able to make within a victim's network, the longer it takes to restore core IT services and scrambled files and the more information can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to help organizations to complete the urgent first steps in mitigating a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's online ransomware experts can help businesses to identify and isolate breached servers and endpoints and guard undamaged resources from being penetrated. If your network has been breached by any strain of ransomware, don't panic. Get immediate help by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
