Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Fort Wayne
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors. Reaching an optimum settlement is a complicated activity that calls for a combination of field experience, IT skills and business savvy. It also calls for close co-operation with the cyber-extortion target's IT team and the cyber insurance provider, if any. Because the top priority of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is vital to deploy response groups that operate effectively, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent has the breadth of IT skills and the depth of personnel to supplement your IT staff and recover your network environment rapidly and affordably.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding money for a decryption tool, current variants of ransomware like Ryuk, Sodinokibi, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim often try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. Hackers are then able to require a separate ransom in exchange for not publishing this data on the dark web. Sadly, there exists no way to guarantee that stolen files have been completely deleted by the TA. Actually, in numerous cases the hacker has limited control over where the information ends up. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an investigation into which data were compromised, and carrying out the required alerts to affected entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
