elevator pitch --- :) Probably all options are possible and paying the ransomers is certainly on the table. We had real experience (in the insurance industry) when private detectives and police officers were involved in luxurious vehicles thefts, only to offer insurers their "quick and successful" services for locating the vehicles. I'm wondering if somth. similar is possible with cybersecurity firms (first to hack you, and then offer you improved cybersecurity products/services) :).
