Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Long Beach
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with hackers. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complex exercise that calls for a combination of real-word experience, IT skills and business acumen. It also calls for working closely with the victim's IT staff and the insurance carrier, if any. Since the number one goal of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is critical to deploy recovery teams that operate efficiently, concurrently, and in close communication. Progent has the scope of IT skills and the deep bench of personnel to complement your network staff and recover your network quickly and economically.

Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting money for a decryption utility, current strains of ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim often try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. Hackers can then demand an additional settlement in exchange for not divulging this data or selling it. Sadly, there exists no method to prove that exfiltrated files have been completely erased by the threat actor. Actually, in many instances the TA has limited control about who can access the stolen files. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the need for getting the guidance of privacy attorneys, conducting an audit on which files were compromised, and carrying out the mandated alerts to impacted entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
