Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way through a network. For this reason, ransomware attacks are typically unleashed on weekends and at night, when IT staff may be slower to become aware of a breach and are less able to organize a quick and forceful defense.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide organizations to carry out the time-critical first steps in responding to a ransomware attack by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware engineers can help you to locate and isolate infected servers and endpoints and guard undamaged assets from being penetrated. If your system has been penetrated by any version of ransomware, act fast. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
