Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way across a target network. For this reason, ransomware assaults are commonly unleashed on weekends and late at night, when support personnel are likely to take longer to recognize a break-in and are less able to organize a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral movement ransomware can achieve inside a target's system, the more time it will require to recover basic operations and damaged files and the more data can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to assist organizations to take the urgent first phase in responding to a ransomware attack by containing the malware. Progent's remote ransomware experts can assist you to locate and isolate breached devices and protect clean assets from being penetrated. If your system has been breached by any version of ransomware, don't panic. Get help quickly by calling Progent's Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.
