24x7 Ransomware Hotline: Call 800-462-8800
Ransomware attacks are typically launched on weekends and at night, when IT personnel are least able to mount a quick and coordinated response. The more lateral progress ransomware can achieve within a victim's network, the longer it will take to restore core IT services and files and the more information can be exfiltrated to the dark web. Progent's Ransomware Hot Line lets you quickly carry out the urgent first steps in mitigating a ransomware attack by putting out the fire. Progent's online ransomware experts can rapidly identify and isolate infected devices and keep clean assets from being contaminated. Progent also offers a full set of ransomware recovery services to get you back in business with minimal delay. If your system has been breached by any strain of ransomware, don't panic. Get help quickly by calling Progent's 24-hour Ransomware Hot Line at 800-462-8800.

Progent also offers specially priced packages of one-time services such as ransomware vulnerability assessment or network penetration testing. Progent's expertise in online support and troubleshooting and Progent's investment in the industry's most advanced remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools allow smaller organizations with little if any fulltime IT staff to benefit from the same level of support as major enterprises with large IT service organizations.
