Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to work its way through a network. Because of this, ransomware assaults are commonly unleashed on weekends and at night, when IT staff are likely to be slower to recognize a penetration and are least able to organize a rapid and forceful response.

Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is intended to guide you to take the time-critical first phase in responding to a ransomware attack by stopping the bleeding. Progent's remote ransomware engineers can help you to locate and quarantine infected servers and endpoints and guard clean assets from being penetrated.
