Hillary Clinton has done well in evading any sense of guilty conscience throughout this email fiasco. I highly recommend you look through some of the following links / quotes that I have gathered for you so you can formualte an opinion on this subject of what I consider to be a growing new-meta system security conversation.
Let’s go back through time and look at the various answers Shillary has given us in regards to this systemic problem:
Clinton said that she had used a private email for convenience, "because I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and for my personal emails instead of two.”
Clinton spokesman Nick Merrill defended Clinton's use of the personal server and email accounts as being in compliance with the "letter and spirit of the rules." Clinton herself stated that she had done so only as a matter of "convenience.”
The Times reported that "None of the Democrats interviewed went so far as to suggest that the email issue raised concerns about Mrs. Clinton's ability to serve as president, and many expressed a belief that it had been manufactured by Republicans in Congress and other adversaries."
Clinton initially said that there was no classified material on her server. Later, after a government review discovered some of her emails contained classified information, she said she never sent or received information that was marked classified.
So we can see US administration is painting a photo of the lady who was just using a tool and she didn’t exactly know exactly what it was that she was doing. I also wanted to make it clear that I believe that is entirely true and I do not think she understands how easy it is for someone in Romania named Guccifer to script kiddy into your server. (lol I’m sorry it’s so funny.)
Now that you have a decent base understanding of the security conversation that the United States is currently having -- the most important thing you could do know is look at the link below:
Key points from the article above:
Clinton was annoyed by security protocols that prevented her from
using her unsecure personal Blackberry for official business. She
repeatedly sought, and failed to secure, an officially-sanctioned
arrangement that would furnish her with enhanced convenience -- then
never told security officials about the private email server through
which she conducted all of her business.
But unknown to diplomatic security and technology officials at the department, there was another looming communications vulnerability: Clinton’s BlackBerry was digitally tethered to a private email server in the basement of her family home, some 260 miles to the north in Chappaqua, N.Y., documents and interviews show. Those officials took no steps to protect the server against intruders and spies, because they apparently were not told about it.
“Any unclassified Blackberry is highly vulnerable in any setting to remotely and covertly monitoring conversations, retrieving e-mails, and exploiting calendars.” Nine days later, Clinton told Boswell that she had read his memo and “gets it,” according to an email sent by a senior diplomatic security official. “Her attention was drawn to the sentence that indicates (Diplomatic Security) have intelligence concerning this vulnerability during her recent trip to Asia,” the email said. But Clinton kept using her private BlackBerry — and the basement server.
“That means that anyone could have accessed it. Anyone,” Kevin Bocek, vice president of threat intelligence at Venafi, told The Post. The system had other features that made it vulnerable to talented hackers, including a software program that enabled users to log on directly from the World Wide Web.
When asked if she deleted information while expecting a security
review, "What, like with a cloth or something?" Clinton said to
reporters at a news conference last month. "I don't know how it works
digitally at all."
It was still a mistake. If I could go back, I'd do it differently,” she said.”
What can we do about it?
Politicians need to understand that they are in a spot in-which their security questions are a potential gold-mine.
Politicians should also not UNDERMINE the work of my generation and generations past by forgoing Security concerns that WILL ONLY GET WORSE. (See Bunkerchain Labs)
Politicians should not LAUGH and JOKE when asked VALID secuirty questions: “I have no idea. That’s why we turned it over,” she added before being cut off by Henry who kept pressing her saying, “you said you were in charge of it [the server]. You were the official in charge. Did you wipe the server?" She replied, “Like with a cloth or something?” responded Clinton.
I feel like her answer to the previous question implied zero accountability at the high-state level. She knew what the question was and responded with mummery. It's disrespectful and they will soon learn why this shit needs to be on point.
To close, I spent the last 25 years of my life learning this field inside and out and it makes me angry to see a complete lack of understanding of the NEW FRONTIER that we are all apart of. . . People need to understand that someone could RUIN your career by figuring out your first dog's name.
They should also take a long hard look at the following link:
