Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond extorting money for a decryption utility, modern variants of ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Nephilim often attempt to exfiltrate files. Hackers can then require an extra ransom for not publishing this information on the dark web. Unfortunately, there exists no method to be certain that stolen files have been totally erased by the TA. In fact, in many instances the TA has limited say over the disposition of the data. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of engaging the advice of privacy lawyers, conducting an audit on which data were compromised, and performing the mandated notifications to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
