Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Sorocaba
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Reaching an acceptable settlement is a complex exercise that calls for a combination of field experience, IT knowledge and business acumen. It also calls for working closely with the ransomware victim's IT staff and the insurance carrier, if there is one. Because the number one goal of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is critical to establish recovery teams that work effectively, in parallel, and in close communication. Progent offers the scope of IT skills and the deep bench of experts to supplement your IT support team and recover your network environment rapidly and economically.

Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting money for a decryption utility, modern strains of ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim often try to exfiltrate files. Hackers can then demand a separate settlement for not divulging this information or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no way to prove that stolen files have been totally erased by the TA. In fact, in many cases the TA has limited say over the disposition of the data. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for engaging the guidance of privacy attorneys, conducting an inventory of data were compromised, and carrying out the mandated alerts to impacted entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
