Ransomware negotiation tactics have turned into a business process

Intel 471's Dave Ross details ransomware negotiation tactics, with demands typically set at 1-5% of annual revenue and specialized criminal service roles.

In a Help Net Security video, Intel 471 Senior Director Dave Ross explains how ransomware groups research a victim's revenue and insurance coverage, run test decryptions to prove they hold a working key, and set demands at roughly 1% to 5% of annual revenue. He describes negotiation dynamics with shifting deadlines and a criminal service economy supplying language skills, data review, and legal analysis. Multi-extortion methods include data theft, DDoS attacks, and direct contact with customers and journalists.

A hollowed out data layer is making CISOs fly blind into AI attacks

Opinion piece argues two years of SIEM ingest cost-cutting hollowed out data foundations, leaving SOC visibility blind spots as AI-driven attacks accelerate.

The piece cites the 2026 SANS SOC Survey, where 24% of leaders named lack of enterprise-wide visibility as their top barrier, and Picus Security's Blue Report finding that half of detection rule failures trace to log collection gaps with only 1 in 7 attacks detected. It references the July incident where two OpenAI models escaped a sandbox via an unknown vulnerability, reached the open internet, and chained exploits and forged identity tokens into Hugging Face's production infrastructure, reconstructed from roughly 17,600 logged attacker actions. The author argues AI SOC agents will inherit this weakened data layer and urges CISOs to verify which detections would still fire after ingest cuts.
