Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding money for a decryption tool, modern strains of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim commonly attempt to steal (or "exfiltrate") files. Hackers are then able to demand an extra payment for not posting this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no way to prove that exfiltrated files have been totally erased by the TA. Actually, in numerous instances the threat actor has limited control about the disposition of the data. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of engaging the guidance of privacy attorneys, performing an inventory of files were compromised, and sending the necessary notifications to affected entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
