Crypto-Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Experts
Progent's Ransomware Settlement Negotiation Services in Chesapeake
Progent is experienced in negotiating ransomware settlements with attackers. Negotiating an acceptable settlement is a complicated exercise that calls for a combination of real-word experience, IT skills and business savvy. It also demands close co-operation with the victim's IT team and the insurance carrier, if any. Since the number one priority of the ransomware target is operational continuity, it is vital to establish response groups that work efficiently, concurrently, and with intimate collaboration. Progent offers the scope of IT knowledge and the deep bench of personnel to supplement your network support team and restore your network environment quickly and economically.
Support offered by Progent's ransomware settlement experts include:
- Establishing the kind of ransomware used in the assault
- Identifying and communicating with the hacker
- Evaluating the recovery risk
- Testing the TA's decryption capabilities
- Budgeting a settlement range with the victim and the insurance provider
- Negotiating a settlement and timeline with the threat actor
- Verifying compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) sanctions
- Carrying out the crypto-currency disbursement to the hacker
- Receiving, learning, and operating the threat actor's decryptor tool
- If needed, contacting the threat actor for assistance with the decryptor tool
- Isolating affected endpoints and data stores to prevent further spread of the assault
- Making replicas of each breached server and endpoint and data store to allow forensics without interfering with recovery
- Installing anti-virus agents to all clean endpoints
- Salvaging files from offline restores or uncompromised endpoints
- Creating a clean recovery environment
- Mapping and reconnecting drives to reflect exactly their pre-attack condition
Settling Exfiltration Ransoms
In addition to demanding payment for a decryption utility, current strains of crypto-ransomware such as Ryuk, Maze, Netwalker, and Egregor commonly attempt to exfiltrate information. Hackers are then able to require an extra settlement in exchange for not divulging this data or selling it. Unfortunately, there is no way to prove that exfiltrated data have been totally deleted by the hacker. Actually, in numerous cases the hacker has little control over where the information ends up. Settling an exfiltration ransom does not eliminate the necessity of seeking the advice of privacy attorneys, conducting an inventory of data were stolen, and performing the necessary alerts to impacted entities. In almost all cases, paying an exfiltration ransom is not recommended.
