Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Anchorage
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with attackers. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complex activity that requires a combination of field experience, IT knowledge and business savvy. It also calls for close co-operation with the victim's IT team and the cyber insurance carrier, if there is one. Because the number one priority of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is critical to establish recovery teams that work effectively, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent has the breadth of IT knowledge and the depth of personnel to supplement your network support team and recover your network environment quickly and affordably.
Support provided by Progent's ransomware settlement experts include:
Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding payment for a decryption tool, current variants of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Nephilim commonly attempt to exfiltrate files. Hackers can then demand an additional ransom in exchange for not posting this data on the dark web. Sadly, there exists no method to prove that stolen files have been totally erased by the TA. In fact, in many instances the threat actor has little say over where the information ends up. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an investigation into which files were stolen, and carrying out the required notifications to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
