Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way across a target network. For this reason, ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and at night, when support personnel are likely to take longer to recognize a breach and are less able to mount a quick and coordinated response. The more lateral movement ransomware is able to make within a victim's network, the more time it will require to recover basic IT services and scrambled files and the more data can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to assist organizations to complete the urgent first steps in mitigating a ransomware attack by containing the malware. Progent's online ransomware experts can help businesses to locate and quarantine breached servers and endpoints and guard clean resources from being compromised. If your network 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.

Overview of Security Services
Coordinating network security as well as preparation for recovering vital data and systems following an attack demands an on-going process involving an array of tools and processes.

Planning and Implementing Secure Networks
Any organization should develop a thoroughly thought out security plan that includes both proactive and responsive activity. The proactive plan is a set of precautions that helps to reduce security gaps. The post-attack plan specifies procedures to assist security staff to assess the damage caused by an attack, repair the damage, record the experience, and revive business functions as quickly as possible. Progent can advise you how to incorporate protection into your company processes. Progent can install scanning software, create and execute a secure network architecture, and propose procedures and policies that will maximize the safety of your network. Progent's security experts are available to assist you to configure a firewall, design protected online and mobile connectivity to e-mail and information, and configure an efficient virtual private network (VPN).
