Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically unleashed on weekends and at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to recognize a break-in and are less able to mount a quick and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware can make inside a victim's network, the longer it takes to restore basic operations and damaged files and the more information can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide organizations to complete the time-critical first steps in mitigating a ransomware assault by stopping the bleeding. Progent's remote ransomware experts can help businesses to locate and quarantine breached servers and endpoints and protect clean assets from being penetrated. If your network has been penetrated by any version of ransomware, don't panic. Get immediate help by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
