Overview of Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Cincinnati
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with adversaries. Negotiating an optimum settlement is a complex exercise that calls for a mix of real-word experience, technical skills and business savvy. It also calls for working closely with the cyber-extortion target's IT team and the cyber insurance provider, if any. Since the top priority of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is critical to deploy response teams that work efficiently, concurrently, and in close communication. Progent offers the scope of IT skills and the deep bench of personnel to complement your IT staff and recover your network environment rapidly and economically.

Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting payment for a decryption utility, modern variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Egregor commonly try to exfiltrate information. TAs are then able to demand a separate ransom in exchange for not divulging this information or selling it. Sadly, there is no method to prove that stolen files have been totally deleted by the hacker. In fact, in numerous cases the TA has limited control over where the information ends up. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of seeking the guidance of legal counsel, conducting an investigation into which data were compromised, and sending the mandated notifications to impacted entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
