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
HRMC is a private, not-for-profit organization. When the ownership of Huron's hospital passed from the Fransciscan Sisters to a locally-owned, private corporation (Huron Regional Medical Center, Inc.) in 1978, those involved in the purchase wanted to ensure Huron's community hospital would be governed by a board of directors reflecting a broad-base of the community. The volunteer board consists of three members recommended by the medical staff, one recommended by the City of Huron and one recommended by the Beadle County Commission. The other board members are elected at-large. Each board member is elected for a three-year term and can serve up to three consecutive terms. The property, funds, affairs and business of HRMC are managed by the board of directors, which is vested with the powers and authority conferred by the laws of South Dakota.
