Overview of Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Hartford
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors (TAs). Reaching an optimum settlement is a complex exercise that calls for a mix of field experience, IT knowledge and business savvy. It also demands close co-operation with the victim's IT staff and the insurance provider, if any. Since the number one priority of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is vital to establish recovery teams that operate effectively, in parallel, and in close communication. Progent offers the breadth of technical knowledge and the depth of personnel to complement your network support team and restore your network environment quickly and affordably.
Services provided by Progent's ransomware settlement negotiation experts include:
Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to extorting payment for a decryption tool, modern variants of ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Egregor often attempt to exfiltrate files. Hackers are then able to demand an extra ransom in exchange for not publishing this data on the dark web. Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that stolen data have been completely erased by the threat actor. In fact, in many instances the threat actor has limited control over the disposition of the data. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the need for seeking the guidance of legal counsel, conducting an inventory of data were taken, and sending the necessary alerts to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
