Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware requires time to work its way across a network. For this reason, ransomware assaults are commonly launched on weekends and at night, when support staff are likely to take longer to become aware of a penetration and are less able to mount a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can manage inside a victim's system, the more time it will require to restore core IT services and damaged files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide you to take the urgent first steps in mitigating a ransomware attack by stopping the bleeding. Progent's online ransomware experts can help you to locate and quarantine infected servers and endpoints and guard clean assets 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.
