Overview of Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Services in Santos
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Negotiating an optimum settlement is a complex exercise that requires a combination of real-word experience, technical skills and business acumen. It also requires close co-operation with the cyber-extortion target's IT staff and the cyber insurance carrier, if any. Since the number one goal of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is critical to establish recovery groups that operate efficiently, in parallel, and in close communication. Progent offers the scope of IT skills and the deep bench of personnel to supplement your IT staff and recover your network quickly and affordably.
Services available from Progent's ransomware negotiation team include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting money for a decryption utility, current variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim commonly try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. TAs are then able to require an extra ransom for not divulging this data or selling it. Unfortunately, there exists no method to prove that stolen data have been completely deleted by the TA. Actually, in numerous cases the hacker has little say about who can access the stolen files. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an audit on which data were compromised, and performing the required notifications to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
