Overview of Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Bakersfield
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Negotiating an optimum settlement is a complex exercise that requires a mix of field experience, IT knowledge and business acumen. It also calls for working closely with the ransomware victim's IT staff and the insurance provider, if there is one. Because the top priority of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is critical to establish response teams that work effectively, concurrently, and in close communication. Progent offers the scope of technical skills and the deep bench of experts to complement your network support team and recover your network quickly and economically.

Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding payment for a decryption tool, modern strains of ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Egregor commonly try to exfiltrate files. Hackers can then demand an additional settlement for not publishing this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no method to guarantee that stolen data have been completely deleted by the TA. In fact, in many instances the TA has limited control over who can access the stolen files. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the need for seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, conducting an investigation into which data were taken, and sending the necessary notifications to impacted entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
