Overview
Why this matters
Modern ransomware doesn't just encrypt one file — it disables backups, exfiltrates sensitive data, deletes shadow copies, and spreads laterally across shared drives and mapped network folders. What you do in the first hour matters more than anything else: powering off spreads the damage, paying the ransom funds the next attack, and running random 'ransomware decryptor' tools destroys evidence and recovery chances.
We follow a proven emergency-response process: isolate infected devices, identify the ransomware family, pull known-good decryptors where they exist, restore encrypted files from clean immutable backups, remove the persistence mechanism, and lock the system down against re-infection with real-time EDR, MFA, and offline backups.
What's included
Everything you get — no extras to chase.
Ransomware Family Identification
We identify the strain (LockBit, Akira, Black Basta, Play, etc.), check the No More Ransom database for free decryptors, and pursue every legitimate recovery path before any ransom is even considered.
Safe Containment (No Panic Reboots)
Isolate the infected machine from Wi-Fi and network drives, preserve forensic evidence, and stop lateral spread — without powering off, which often destroys memory-resident decryption keys.
Clean Backup Restoration
Restore encrypted files from clean, immutable backups (yours or ours). We verify the backup itself isn't compromised before restoring — critical, because 60% of ransomware also encrypts detected backup sets.
Full Persistence Removal
Manual inspection and cleanup of scheduled tasks, services, WMI subscriptions, startup entries, and lateral-movement footholds. If it's not removed completely, it comes back.
Post-Attack Hardening
Deploy managed EDR, enforce MFA, segment the network, install real 3-2-1 immutable backups, and train your staff — the same stack that stops the next attack in minutes instead of days.
How it works
Simple, transparent, no surprises.

Contain + identify
Isolate the machine from network + Wi-Fi, preserve evidence, identify the ransomware family, and check for legitimate free decryptors.
03
Recover + clean
Restore encrypted files from clean immutable backups, fully remove the payload and persistence, and rebuild any machine that can't be safely cleaned.
04
Harden + monitor
Deploy EDR, MFA, and immutable backup so the next attempt is stopped in minutes — we watch the environment for a full 30 days after cleanup.

FAQs
Questions we hear a lot.
If you don't see your question here, just call or text us.
Almost never. Paying funds the next attack, marks you as a repeat target (30-50% of paying victims get hit again within 12 months), and only ~65% of paying victims actually recover their data. In most cases we recover from clean backups, free public decryptors, or partial file-carving — without paying a cent. If payment is ever the only option, we walk you through the legal, insurance, and OFAC-sanctions checks first.
