Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way through a target network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically launched on weekends and late at night, when support personnel may take longer to recognize a breach and are least able to mount a rapid and coordinated defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can make inside a target's system, the longer it will require to recover basic operations and scrambled files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to help organizations to carry out the urgent first phase in responding to a ransomware assault by putting out the fire. Progent's remote ransomware experts can assist you to identify and quarantine breached servers and endpoints and protect undamaged resources from being penetrated. If your system has been breached by any version of ransomware, act fast. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

Managing network security plus preparation for recovering vital data and functions following a security breach demands a continual process involving a variety of tools and procedures.

Some areas covered by Progent's security consultants include Planning and Prevention, Information Recovery and Security Forensics, and Managed Protection from E-mail-Borne Threats.
Designing and Building Secure Environments
Any company should develop a carefully thought out security plan that incorporates both proactive and responsive activity. The pre-attack plan is a collection of precautions that helps to minimize vulnerabilities. The reactive strategy defines activities to help security staff to assess the damage resulting from a breach, repair the damage, record the experience, and restore network functions as soon as possible. Progent can show you how to incorporate security into your company operations. Progent can install auditing software, create and implement a secure network infrastructure, and propose processes and policies that will enhance the protection of your network.
