Cyber Extortion Response Stages

What Happens During an Active Incident?

  1. Assessment

    First, we identify the ransomware strain, outline risks and recovery options, and review strain-specific analytics, including data recovery percentage and expected downtime.

  2. Extortion Negotiation

    We negotiate on your behalf and work within your timeline and desired deliverables to determine the right recovery path for your incident. Our extensive case data allows us to forecast your outcomes based on historic cases.

  3. Ransomware Settlement

    When necessary, Coveware by Veeam will simplify and ensure settlement success. We work 24/7 to negotiate with no hidden fees or markups and 100% transparency on reimbursed costs.

  4. Decrypt and Recover

    We utilize proprietary decryption tools to help you safely recover with documentation available to streamline your data recovery and documentation to meet insurance and compliance requirements.
