Window Zero
EXPOSURE GAPWindow Zero is the time the breach stayed in the open before anyone said so — the gap between when the attack was first discovered on the operator's leak site (t1) and when it was publicly disclosed (t2). The wider this window, the longer victims, staff and customers were exposed with no warning.
Attack Summary
Advanced Security Systems has been a leader in the security industry for over 45 years. It customs design, install and service: burglar and fire alarms, video surveillance, access control and home automation, controlling lights, thermostat, door locks and more all from the smart phone. It transmits fire and security alarm signals to its monitoring station in Eureka. Advanced Security offers the only local monitoring station on the Northcoast. It invested in building and staffing its own local central station instead of contracting with a third party out-of-the-area provider. Advanced Security has remained a family owned and operated alarm company since 1971.
