Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Addison
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors. Reaching an optimum settlement is a complex activity that requires a combination of field experience, IT skills and business acumen. It also demands close co-operation with the cyber-extortion target's IT staff and the cyber insurance provider, if there is one. Because the number one goal of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is vital to establish recovery groups that operate effectively, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the scope of technical skills and the depth of experts to supplement your network staff and recover your network quickly and economically.
Services offered by Progent's ransomware settlement team include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding money for a decryption tool, modern variants of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim often attempt to exfiltrate information. Hackers are then able to demand a separate ransom for not divulging this information or selling it. Sadly, there exists no way to guarantee that exfiltrated data have been totally erased by the hacker. Actually, in many instances the TA has little control over who can access the stolen files. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for getting the advice of privacy lawyers, conducting an investigation into which data were taken, and sending the required notifications to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
