Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to steal its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically unleashed on weekends and late at night, when IT staff may be slower to recognize a breach and are less able to mount a quick and forceful response. The more lateral movement ransomware can achieve inside a target's system, the longer it takes to restore core IT services and damaged files and the more information can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to help you to carry out the time-critical first phase in responding to a ransomware assault by putting out the fire. Progent's online ransomware engineers can help you to locate and isolate breached servers and endpoints and guard clean 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.
