Abuse and Response Team A La Carte Services
HostDime's Abuse and Response Team's main concern is the protection of our customers and their servers, applications, and information. Often times, a client will want to resolve the issues themselves but don't know where to begin. These issues would be investigated and a report provided to the client. The remaining issues will then be subject to further administrative time to resolve as outlined below.
