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
Today we have for you a special case on our website, some may call an "Anomaly". Today's "hero" is non other then Access Capital Partners SA - an independent private assets manager investing in the key economies of Western Europe which is mostly owned by its own management. After analyzing their financial operations we have identified many interesting facts about their investment strategies in the EU. Many interesting names have popped up such as high ranking politicians, members of the royal family, high ranking officials on financial institutions and current representatives of the EU commissions of the financial markets. On one hand there is nothing our of the ordinary here, but after more delicate search we can see facts showing the "Washing" their own investments, deceptive funds in different residences so as not to show their true earnings. When our colleagues made contact with the representatives of said company, they pretended that they understand the seriousness of the situation and that they are ready to cooperate and come to a solution without the knowledge of the normal folk. But they were only fishing for information, trying to figure out how compromised they are. As for us this is just business, we were truthfully trying to consult all the interested parties, but one of the parties was trying to prolong the dialogue whilst trying to insure themselves on the information that was leaked. Furthermore people that are creating the regulatory laws and penalties for the leaked information for all the companies, decided that this situation is not a threat to them or as they word for word said "We do not care, nothing will happen to us". It is very interesting how regulators of the world regulate their own companies.
