In that case they have the keys, but 100 BTC? That's still delusional. On day 1, perhaps some would have paid. But DR has already started.

$250k is way too large of an ask for this given the time that's passed.

Has DLA Piper gotten access to all their files yet? For them it'd be a drop in the bucket if it made a difference (and legally, um, dodgy).

Good question. I don't think paying ransom is legally dodgy, though in this case if it's widely believed to be nation state it might be.

I'd bet DLA Piper's partners would consider it too risky, even if it is peanuts for them. But also look forward to full back story to them.

Ferinstance: we don't know who DLA was working with in Ukraine such that they got infected. Seems like an interesting question.
