24x7 Online Help from a Senior Ransomware Consultant
Ransomware requires time to steal its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to become aware of a breach and are less able to organize a rapid and coordinated defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can make within a victim's system, the longer it takes to restore basic IT services and scrambled files and the more data can be exfiltrated to the dark web.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to assist you to take the urgent first step in mitigating a ransomware attack by putting out the fire. Progent's online ransomware experts can help organizations in the Brasília metro area to locate and quarantine infected devices and protect clean assets from being penetrated.

If your system has been penetrated by any strain of ransomware, don't panic. Get immediate help by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

Progent's Ransomware Recovery Services Offered in Brasília
Modern variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim encrypt online files and attack any available system restores. Data synchronized to the cloud can also be impacted. For a vulnerable network, this can make system restoration almost impossible and effectively throws the IT system back to square one. Threat Actors, the hackers behind a ransomware attack, demand a settlement payment in exchange for the decryptors needed to recover scrambled data. Ransomware assaults also attempt to steal (or "exfiltrate") files and TAs demand an extra ransom for not posting this information or selling it. Even if you are able to rollback your system to a tolerable date in time, exfiltration can be a big problem depending on the nature of the stolen information.

The restoration process subsequent to ransomware attack involves several crucial phases, the majority of which can proceed concurrently if the response team has enough people with the necessary skill sets.

• Quarantine: This urgent initial response requires arresting the lateral progress of ransomware within your network. The longer a ransomware attack is allowed to run unchecked, the longer and more expensive the recovery effort. Recognizing this, Progent maintains a round-the-clock Ransomware Hotline monitored by seasoned ransomware recovery experts. Containment processes consist of cutting off affected endpoint devices from the rest of network to block the contagion, documenting the environment, and securing entry points.
• Operational continuity: This covers bringing back the network to a minimal acceptable degree of capability with the shortest possible downtime. This effort is typically the top priority for the targets of the ransomware attack, who often perceive it to be an existential issue for their company. This project also requires the broadest range of technical skills that cover domain controllers, DHCP servers, physical and virtual servers, desktops, notebooks and mobile phones, databases, productivity and line-of-business apps, network architecture, and secure remote access. Progent's recovery team uses state-of-the-art collaboration platforms to coordinate the complex restoration process. Progent understands the importance of working rapidly, tirelessly, and in unison with a customer's managers and IT group to prioritize activity and to put critical services on line again as quickly as feasible.
• Data restoration: The work required to recover data damaged by a ransomware attack varies according to the condition of the systems, how many files are affected, and which recovery techniques are required. Ransomware attacks can take down key databases which, if not carefully closed, might need to be reconstructed from scratch. This can apply to DNS and AD databases. Exchange and Microsoft SQL Server rely on AD, and many financial and other mission-critical applications are powered by Microsoft SQL Server. Often some detective work could be needed to find clean data. For instance, non-encrypted OST files (Outlook Email Offline Folder Files) may have survived on employees' desktop computers and laptops that were off line during the ransomware attack.
• Implementing advanced antivirus/ransomware defense: Progent's ProSight ASM uses SentinelOne's behavioral analysis technology to offer small and medium-sized companies the advantages of the identical AV technology used by many of the world's largest corporations including Netflix, Visa, and NASDAQ. By delivering real-time malware blocking, detection, containment, recovery and forensics in a single integrated platform, Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring reduces total cost of ownership, simplifies management, and expedites operational continuity. SentinelOne's next-generation endpoint protection (NGEP) incorporated in Progent's ProSight ASM was ranked by Gartner Group as the "most visionary Endpoint Protection Platform." Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. Learn about Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring endpoint protection and ransomware recovery with SentinelOne technology.
• Negotiation with the hacker Progent is experienced in negotiating ransom settlements with threat actors. This calls for working closely with the ransomware victim and the insurance carrier, if any. Activities include determining the kind of ransomware involved in the attack; identifying and making contact with the hacker persona; testing decryption capabilities; deciding on a settlement amount with the ransomware victim and the cyber insurance provider; establishing a settlement and schedule with the hacker; confirming compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations; carrying out the crypto-currency transfer to the TA; receiving, reviewing, and operating the decryptor tool; troubleshooting failed files; creating a pristine environment; remapping and reconnecting drives to reflect precisely their pre-encryption condition; and recovering machines and software services.
• Forensic analysis: This activity involves learning the ransomware attack's progress across the network from beginning to end. This history of the way a ransomware assault progressed through the network assists you to assess the impact and uncovers weaknesses in rules or processes that need to be corrected to avoid future breaches. Forensics involves the examination of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object (GPO), Active Directory, DNS, routers, firewalls, scheduled tasks, and basic Windows systems to detect variations. Forensic analysis is usually assigned a high priority by the cyber insurance provider. Because forensics can take time, it is vital that other important recovery processes such as business resumption are performed in parallel. Progent has an extensive roster of IT and cybersecurity professionals with the knowledge and experience required to carry out the work of containment, business continuity, and data restoration without interfering with forensic analysis.
