Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond extorting payment for a decryption tool, modern strains of ransomware like Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Egregor often attempt to exfiltrate information. Hackers can then require a separate payment in exchange for not publishing this data on the dark web. Sadly, there exists no way to guarantee that stolen data have been totally erased by the TA. Actually, in numerous cases the threat actor has little control over who can access the stolen files. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of engaging the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an investigation into which files were taken, and performing the required alerts to affected entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
