Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Services in Madison
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Reaching an optimum settlement is a complex exercise that calls for a mix of real-word experience, IT skills and business savvy. It also demands close co-operation with the victim's IT staff and the cyber insurance provider, if there is one. Because the top goal of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is vital to deploy recovery teams that work efficiently, in parallel, and in close communication. Progent offers the breadth of IT skills and the depth of personnel to supplement your IT support team and restore your network rapidly and economically.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding money for a decryption tool, modern strains of ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Egregor often attempt to exfiltrate files. TAs can then demand an extra ransom for not publishing this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there exists no way to prove that exfiltrated files have been completely deleted by the threat actor. Actually, in many instances the threat actor has little say about data custody. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of getting the guidance of privacy attorneys, conducting an inventory of files were taken, and performing the required alerts to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
