Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Sherman Oaks
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with hackers. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complex activity that calls for a mix of real-word experience, technical knowledge and business acumen. It also requires working closely with the ransomware victim's IT team and the cyber insurance provider, if there is one. Because the number one priority of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is vital to establish response teams that operate efficiently, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the scope of IT knowledge and the depth of experts to supplement your network support team and recover your network rapidly and affordably.
Support offered by Progent's ransomware settlement negotiation experts include:
Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting payment for a decryption utility, modern variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Nephilim often attempt to exfiltrate information. Hackers can then demand an extra payment for not divulging this information on the dark web. Unfortunately, there is no method to prove that exfiltrated files have been completely deleted by the hacker. Actually, in many instances the TA has little control over where the information ends up. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for engaging the advice of legal counsel, conducting an audit on which files were taken, and performing the mandated alerts to impacted entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
