Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way across a network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are typically unleashed on weekends and late at night, when IT personnel may be slower to recognize a break-in and are least able to mount a rapid and coordinated defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can manage inside a victim's system, the more time it takes to recover core operations 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 complete the urgent first phase in mitigating a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware experts can assist businesses to locate and isolate infected devices and guard clean resources from being penetrated. If your system has been breached by any version of ransomware, don't panic. Get immediate help by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

We've Been Attacked: What Do We Do?
If you are now fighting a network security crisis other than ransomware, visit Progent's Urgent Remote Technical Help to find out how to receive fast assistance. Progent maintains a pool of veteran cybersecurity experts who can provide online and on-premises support that includes threat containment, mitigation, recovery, forensics, and hardening of your security profile to protect against future exploits.

For businesses who have prepared in advance for a security breach, the formal post-attack response model outlined by GIAC is Progent's preferred method of reacting to a serious security incident.

Introduction to Security Services
Managing network security plus preparedness for restoring critical information and systems after an attack requires an on-going effort involving an array of technologies and processes. Progent's certified security professionals can support your organization at all levels in your attempt to protect your IT network, from security evaluation to creating a complete security program. Some technologies supported by Progent's security engineers include Security Planning and Prevention, Data Recovery and Security Failure Analysis, and Managed Protection from Email-Borne Attacks.

Designing and Building Protected Environments
Every business should develop a carefully thought out security strategy that incorporates both proactive and reactive activity. The pre-attack plan is a collection of steps that helps to minimize vulnerabilities. The reactive plan defines activities to help IT staff to inventory the losses caused by a breach, repair the damage, document the experience, and restore business activity as quickly as possible. Progent can advise you how to build protection into your company processes. Progent can set up auditing software, create and execute a secure network infrastructure, and recommend processes and policies that will enhance the protection of your computing environment. Progent's security professionals are available to assist you to configure a firewall, design secure offsite access to e-mail and data, and configure an efficient VPN.
