Overview of Progent's Ransomware Negotiation Consulting in Birmingham

Negotiating an optimum settlement is a complicated activity that requires a combination of real-word experience, IT knowledge and business acumen.

Paying Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding money for a decryption utility, current variants of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Sodinokibi, Netwalker, and Nephilim often attempt to exfiltrate files. Hackers can then demand an extra payment for not divulging this data on the dark web. Unfortunately, there exists no method to prove that stolen files have been totally erased by the TA. Actually, in many instances the hacker has limited say about who can access the stolen files. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not free you from the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, performing an inventory of data were compromised, and sending the required notifications to affected entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is a waste.
