this actually rules because the it consultants absolutely charged 10x the price of the ransom, at minimum
the document says the company charged $6k and paid the four bitcoin ransom. the price of bitcoin on april 11th 2016 was 421.14, so they paid $1,684.56+fees for approximately $4300 in profit.

I mean, if the crypto on the ransomware is actually as strong as it's supposed to be wouldn't the only alternative to paying the ransom being a "boil the oceans"-type scenario?

Sounds like the company was exercising due diligence and acting in the client's best interest to me? :shrug:

they have been doing this for ages, normally they do it while the body is still in the city morgue so nobody needs to give access

the cops here sometimes go to the morgue to get the fingers off corpses to fingerprint-identify them. that’s called a ”sausage run”. they literally just get the fingers in a bag.

are they not allowed to fingerprint in the morgue, and do you get the fingers returned or are they disposed of by random technicians at the nearest station

i'd have to check how that's handled around here but dismembering corpses over a fingerprint doesn't sound like standard procedure

the AFIS (digital fingerprint) machine is the size of a gaming arcade booth and lives at the police station. it’s also harder to take ink prints from a corpse than individual fingers.

Finns don’t usually do open caskets so the body is cremated anyway, and after an autopsy your body parts are literally slices and your brain sits in the stomach cavity sliced up like a loaf of bread. I’ve seen it done.

In finland almost every dead person is autopsied, which means a lot of deaths that are actual homicides get noticed at that stage.

it’s called ”nakkikeikka” in police slang in finnish, ”sausage run” is my unofficial translation so you’ll probably find nothing about in google.

my source for this info is the teacher that taught us cause of death investigation at the police college of Finland.

e: idk what they do with the fingers afterwards but I guess they’re returned to the morgue to be buried along with the rest of the deceased’s earthly remains.

i was more confused over the handling of body parts as they're generally considered biohazard, and then there's contamination with anything along the way including the fingerprint scanner

going to the morgue makes sense, since it's technically still in police custody. i haven't heard about cutting fingers off but i'm sure it happens somewhere. going to the funeral home, after the body has already been released to the family, is the hosed up thing about this particular scenario.

yeah we don't have funeral homes in the sense that the US does. I think the body pretty much goes from the morgue to the crematorium, from which the urn is given to the family. The urn is buried over a somber ceremony and then there will be lukewarm coffee and sandwich cake.

I guess these cases are when it's a) too cumbersome to move the whole corpse from some place to another place b) digital fingerprinting is involved c) the deceased is unknown, and as such, no family has yet been identified. We didn't even discuss whether it would be disrespectful to the family, just shrugged that "ok that makes sense I guess".

As for the biohazard part, I guess rubber gloves are involved, it's not like you just stick nine in your pockets and one up your rear end and off you go on your merry way. It's not like a severed finger will bleed, you can just rinse it off and bag it.

Edit: OK I actually found a source for this: "Yleensä tekniset tutkijat käyvät ruumishuoneella myöhemmin ottamassa vainajalta sormenjäljet, joskus jopa sormenpäät, myöhempää rikosteknisessä laboratoriossa tapahtuvaa sormenjälkien tutkimista varten",

which translates to:

"Usually the forensic investigators will visit the morgue on a later time to collect the fingerprints from the deceased, and sometimes even the tips of the fingers, for a later fingerprint investigation at the forensic laboratory.", Written by Kimmo K. Kiiski, "Poliisin rooli kuolemansyyn tutkinnassa" - "The role of the police in determining cause of death", 2009.

This is one of my old textbooks from the police college.

Why not just get bigger pockets? It seems like driving with a finger up your rear end would be uncomfortable.
