Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Allen
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with hackers. Negotiating an optimum settlement is a complicated exercise that requires a mix of field experience, technical knowledge and business acumen. It also requires close co-operation with the victim's IT staff and the insurance carrier, if any. Because the number one goal of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is critical to deploy recovery teams that operate efficiently, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent has the scope of technical knowledge and the deep bench of personnel to complement your network staff and recover your network quickly and economically.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding money for a decryption tool, modern strains of ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Nephilim commonly attempt to steal (or "exfiltrate") files. TAs can then demand an extra payment in exchange for not divulging this information on the dark web. Sadly, there exists no way to be certain that stolen data have been completely erased by the TA. Actually, in many instances the threat actor has little control over where the information ends up. Paying an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy lawyers, performing an inventory of data were taken, and carrying out the required alerts to impacted entities. In general, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
