Because the top priority of the ransomware victim is operational continuity, it is critical to deploy response teams that operate efficiently, concurrently, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the breadth of IT knowledge and the depth of personnel to complement your IT support team and recover your network environment quickly and affordably.

Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond extorting money for a decryption utility, modern strains of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Egregor often attempt to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. TAs can then demand a separate payment in exchange for not publishing this data or selling it. Unfortunately, there exists no way to prove that stolen data have been completely erased by the hacker. In fact, in many cases the threat actor has little control over who can access the stolen files. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, conducting an inventory of files were compromised, and sending the necessary notifications to affected entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
