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
The headquarters is located in Sinzig/Rhine, where about 30 employees can rely on more than two decades of experience and can therefore assure a competent handling of our daily and future business. With more than 1.000 m2 office space and 1.500 m2 warehouse space, our headquarters also comprise our own development department as well as a highly modern production line, on which the tuning boxes are produced according to EC-Directives.Speed-Buster® sells its tuning boxes globally in more than 50 countries with high success and in high quantities. Our clients know and appreciate that the label made in Germany is a guarantee for sophisticated and high-quality products. As a support, local distributor bases are established all around the globe. Contrary to the current tendency amongst many of our competitors, SPEED-BUSTER has decided to solely produce in Germany. This allows us to intervene in a focused manner at any time of the manufacturing process and to continuously enhance our products. The loyalty of our customers has confirmed this decision time and again.
