Ransomware Hot Line: 800-462-8800
Ransomware needs time to steal its way across a target network. Because of this, ransomware attacks are commonly unleashed on weekends and at night, when IT staff are likely to take longer to become aware of a break-in and are least able to mount a rapid and forceful defense. The more lateral progress ransomware can manage inside a target's network, the more time it takes to recover core operations and scrambled files and the more data can be stolen and posted to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line is designed to guide organizations to complete the time-critical first phase in mitigating a ransomware assault by stopping the bleeding. Progent's online ransomware experts can assist businesses to locate and quarantine breached devices and protect undamaged 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.
