Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when support personnel may take longer to become aware of a breach and are least able to organize a quick and forceful defense.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to help you to carry out the urgent first steps in mitigating a ransomware assault by stopping the bleeding. Progent's remote ransomware experts can help you to locate and quarantine infected devices and protect undamaged resources from being compromised.
