Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding payment for a decryption utility, modern variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Egregor commonly try to steal (or "exfiltrate") files. Hackers can then require a separate payment in exchange for not divulging this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that exfiltrated data have been completely erased by the hacker. In fact, in many cases the TA has limited control over the disposition of the data. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the need for engaging the guidance of privacy lawyers, performing an inventory of data were taken, and carrying out the required alerts to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
