Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Toronto
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Reaching an optimum settlement is a complex activity that requires a combination of real-word experience, IT knowledge and business savvy. It also calls for working closely with the ransomware victim's IT staff and the cyber insurance provider, if any. Since the top priority of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is vital to establish response groups that work efficiently, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent has the breadth of IT skills and the deep bench of experts to complement your network support team and recover your network rapidly and economically.
Support offered by Progent's ransomware settlement team include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding payment for a decryption utility, current strains of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Sodinokibi, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim commonly try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. Hackers are then able to demand an extra settlement for not divulging this data or selling it. Sadly, there is no method to prove that stolen data have been completely erased by the TA. In fact, in numerous instances the hacker has little say over data custody. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, conducting an investigation into which files were stolen, and carrying out the mandated notifications to impacted entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
