Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to steal its way across a target network. For this reason, ransomware assaults are typically unleashed on weekends and at night, when IT personnel are likely to be slower to become aware of a break-in and are least able to mount a quick and forceful defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can make within a target's network, the more time it takes to restore core operations and damaged files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to assist you to carry out the time-critical first steps in responding to a ransomware assault by containing the malware. Progent's online ransomware engineers can assist you to identify and quarantine breached devices and protect undamaged resources from being compromised. 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.
