Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Allentown
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complicated activity that requires a combination of field experience, IT skills and business savvy. It also demands working closely with the ransomware victim's IT team and the insurance carrier, if there is one. Because the top priority of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is vital to establish recovery groups that work effectively, concurrently, and in close communication. Progent offers the scope of IT knowledge and the depth of personnel to complement your IT support team and restore your network rapidly and affordably.
Support available from Progent's ransomware negotiation experts include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting payment for a decryption utility, current strains of ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, DopplePaymer, and Egregor commonly attempt to exfiltrate information. Hackers are then able to require an additional settlement for not divulging this data on the dark web. Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that exfiltrated files have been completely deleted by the TA. In fact, in many instances the TA has little control over data custody. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of seeking the advice of legal counsel, conducting an investigation into which data were taken, and carrying out the required notifications to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
