Overview of Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Midtown Manhattan

Reaching an acceptable settlement is a complex exercise that requires a combination of real-word experience, IT skills and business acumen. It also demands working closely with the ransomware victim's IT team and the cyber insurance provider, if any. Because the number one goal of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is vital to deploy response groups that work effectively, in parallel, and in close communication. Progent has the scope of technical skills and the deep bench of experts to supplement your network support team and restore your network environment quickly and economically.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond extorting payment for a decryption tool, current strains of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim often try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. Hackers can then require an additional ransom in exchange for not divulging this information on the dark web. Sadly, there is no way to be certain that stolen files have been totally erased by the TA. Actually, in numerous instances the threat actor has limited control about data custody. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for seeking the guidance of privacy attorneys, conducting an inventory of data were compromised, and performing the mandated alerts to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
