Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically launched on weekends and at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to become aware of a penetration and are least able to mount a quick and forceful defense. The more lateral progress ransomware is able to achieve inside a victim's network, the more time it will require to recover core operations and damaged files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide you to take the urgent first phase in responding to a ransomware assault by putting out the fire. Progent's online ransomware engineers can assist businesses to identify and isolate breached devices and guard clean resources from being penetrated. If your network has been breached by any version of ransomware, act fast. Get immediate help by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
