Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Hartford
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complex exercise that requires 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 insurance provider, if there is one. Since the number one priority of the ransomware target is fast recovery, it is critical to deploy recovery teams that operate effectively, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the breadth of IT skills and the deep bench of personnel to supplement your network staff and recover your network rapidly and affordably.
Support available from Progent's ransomware settlement experts include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting payment for a decryption tool, modern variants of crypto-ransomware like Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim often try to steal (or "exfiltrate") information. Hackers are then able to demand an extra payment for not divulging this information on the dark web. Unfortunately, there exists no way to prove that stolen data have been completely deleted by the hacker. Actually, in many cases the hacker has limited say about where the information ends up. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of seeking the guidance of privacy attorneys, performing an audit on which files were taken, and performing the mandated notifications to impacted entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
