Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Cambridge
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with hackers. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complex exercise that requires a combination of real-word experience, IT skills and business savvy. It also demands close co-operation with the ransomware victim's IT team and the insurance provider, if any. Since the number one goal of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is critical to establish response teams that work efficiently, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent has the breadth of technical skills and the deep bench of personnel to supplement your IT support team and restore your network environment quickly and economically.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond extorting payment for a decryption utility, modern strains of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Egregor often try to exfiltrate files. TAs are then able to demand an additional settlement in exchange for not publishing this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no method to be certain that exfiltrated data have been completely deleted by the TA. In fact, in numerous instances the hacker has little control about the disposition of the data. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the need for seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an audit on which data were compromised, and sending the mandated alerts to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
