Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way through a target network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically launched on weekends and at night, when support personnel are likely to take longer to recognize a break-in and are less able to mount a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware is able to achieve within a victim's network, the longer it takes to recover basic operations and damaged files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide organizations to take the urgent first phase in mitigating a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware engineers can assist you to locate and quarantine infected servers and endpoints and guard clean assets from being compromised. 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.
