Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Consulting in Detroit
Progent has experience negotiating ransomware settlements with threat actors. Reaching an acceptable settlement is a complex activity that requires a mix of field experience, technical knowledge and business savvy. It also requires close co-operation with the cyber-extortion target's IT team and the insurance provider, if there is one. Since the top goal of the ransomware victim is fast recovery, it is critical to establish response groups that operate effectively, in parallel, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the breadth of IT knowledge and the depth of experts to supplement your network staff and recover your network rapidly and affordably.

Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
Beyond demanding payment for a decryption utility, modern strains of ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, DopplePaymer, and Egregor often try to exfiltrate information. TAs are then able to demand an additional settlement for not publishing this information on the dark web. Sadly, there exists no method to guarantee that stolen files have been completely deleted by the TA. Actually, in many cases the TA has limited say over data custody. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the need for engaging the guidance of privacy lawyers, conducting an investigation into which data were stolen, and performing the required alerts to impacted entities. Generally, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
