Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800

24x7 Online Access to a Top-tier Ransomware Engineer
Ransomware requires time to work its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when support staff may be slower to become aware of a break-in and are less able to organize a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware is able to make within a target's system, the more time it takes to recover core IT services and damaged files and the more data can be exfiltrated to the dark web.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to help organizations to take the urgent first step in mitigating a ransomware attack by stopping the bleeding. Progent's online ransomware experts can assist businesses in the Allentown area to locate and isolate infected devices and protect undamaged assets from being penetrated.

If your system has been breached by any strain of ransomware, act fast. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

Progent's Ransomware Recovery Services Offered in Allentown
Modern variants of ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Egregor encrypt online files and attack any accessible backups. Data synchronized to the cloud can also be corrupted. For a vulnerable network, this can make system recovery nearly impossible and basically throws the datacenter back to the beginning. So-called Threat Actors (TAs), the hackers responsible for ransomware assault, insist on a settlement fee in exchange for the decryption tools required to recover scrambled data. Ransomware assaults also attempt to exfiltrate files and TAs demand an additional ransom for not publishing this information or selling it. Even if you can rollback your network to an acceptable point in time, exfiltration can be a major problem depending on the sensitivity of the downloaded information.

The restoration work subsequent to ransomware penetration has a number of crucial phases, most of which can be performed concurrently if the response team has enough people with the required experience.

• Containment: This urgent first response requires arresting the sideways progress of the attack across your IT system. The more time a ransomware assault is allowed to go unrestricted, the longer and more costly the recovery process. Because of this, Progent keeps a 24x7 Ransomware Hotline staffed by seasoned ransomware response experts. Quarantine processes include cutting off affected endpoint devices from the network to restrict the spread, documenting the IT system, and securing entry points.
• Operational continuity: This covers bringing back the network to a minimal acceptable degree of functionality with the shortest possible delay. This process is usually at the highest level of urgency for the victims of the ransomware attack, who often perceive it to be an existential issue for their business. This activity also demands the widest range of technical skills that cover domain controllers, DHCP servers, physical and virtual machines, PCs, laptops and smart phones, databases, productivity and line-of-business apps, network architecture, and safe remote access management. Progent's ransomware recovery team uses state-of-the-art workgroup platforms to coordinate the multi-faceted restoration effort. Progent appreciates the urgency of working rapidly, tirelessly, and in unison with a customer's management and IT group to prioritize activity and to put vital services back online as quickly as feasible.
• Data restoration: The effort required to restore data damaged by a ransomware attack varies according to the condition of the systems, how many files are affected, and what restore techniques are needed. Ransomware assaults can take down critical databases which, if not gracefully closed, might need to be rebuilt from the beginning. This can include DNS and AD databases. Exchange and SQL Server depend on AD, and many manufacturing and other mission-critical applications depend on Microsoft SQL Server. Often some detective work could be needed to find undamaged data. For instance, undamaged Outlook Email Offline Folder Files may have survived on employees' desktop computers and notebooks that were off line during the assault. Progent's ProSight Data Protection Services utilize Altaro VM Backup tools to protect against ransomware via Immutable Cloud Storage. This creates tamper-proof backup data that cannot be erased or modified by any user including administrators or root users.
• Setting up modern AV/ransomware defense: ProSight ASM uses SentinelOne's behavioral analysis technology to give small and mid-sized companies the advantages of the identical anti-virus technology used by some of the world's largest corporations including Netflix, Citi, and NASDAQ. By delivering real-time malware blocking, detection, containment, repair and forensics in a single integrated platform, Progent's ProSight ASM cuts total cost of ownership, streamlines administration, and expedites recovery. SentinelOne's next-generation endpoint protection engine incorporated in ProSight ASM was ranked by Gartner Group as the "most visionary Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)." Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. Find out about Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring endpoint protection and ransomware recovery with SentinelOne technology.
• Negotiating a settlement with the threat actor (TA): Progent has experience negotiating settlements with hackers. This requires close co-operation with the victim and the insurance carrier, if any. Services include establishing the type of ransomware used in the assault; identifying and making contact with the hacker persona; verifying decryption tool; deciding on a settlement amount with the victim and the insurance provider; establishing a settlement and timeline with the TA; checking adherence to anti-money laundering sanctions; carrying out the crypto-currency transfer to the TA; receiving, learning, and using the decryption tool; debugging failed files; building a clean environment; remapping and reconnecting drives to reflect precisely their pre-attack state; and reprovisioning computers and software services.
• Forensics: This activity is aimed at discovering the ransomware assault's progress throughout the targeted network from beginning to end. This history of the way a ransomware assault progressed within the network assists you to evaluate the impact and highlights gaps in security policies or processes that should be rectified to avoid later break-ins. Forensics entails the examination of all logs, registry, Group Policy Object, Active Directory, DNS servers, routers, firewalls, scheduled tasks, and core Windows systems to check for changes. Forensics is commonly given a top priority by the insurance provider. Because forensics can be time consuming, it is critical that other key recovery processes like business continuity are pursued concurrently. Progent has a large team of information technology and cybersecurity professionals with the knowledge and experience required to carry out the work of containment, business resumption, and data restoration without disrupting forensic analysis.
