Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way through a target network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when support staff are likely to be slower to become aware of a penetration and are least able to mount a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware can make inside a victim's network, the more time it takes 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 help organizations to carry out the time-critical first steps in mitigating a ransomware attack by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware experts can help you to identify and quarantine infected servers and endpoints and protect clean assets from being compromised. If your system 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.
Work-from-Home Cybersecurity Consulting
Work-from-Home (WFH) staff members typically use their personal computing devices and usually operate in a unsecured physical environment. This increases their susceptibility to malware attacks and requires judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, thorough user training, and the creation of security policies built on best practices.

A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized as this added means of authentication including a smartphone or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may designate multiple validation devices.
