This is an early preview of a conversation with Jeremy Brown. He shares his point of view on the difference between talking with a threat actor and actually negotiating with them, why experts advise opening that line of communication, and how those early exchanges can reveal critical forensic details about what data is at risk. He also walks through when negotiation begins, what victims try to achieve, and how attackers use those conversations to shape the ransom demand.
