Bathroom doors have locks. Locks are the very definition of security.

Go on late night and crack a few jokes in her cackling screeching voice.

This women’s voice really is like nails on a chalkboard.

Anymore its hard not to believe this rouge server was set up for anything other than to be a giant leak to our enemies.
I really want to know who the “classified” documents were e-mailed to (i.e., were they .gov addresses or .com or .cn???).
This was not an “ooopsie”; this was all done with motive; what was that motive?

Plus, despite prior reports, it was not in the basement where it would have been more exposed to water damage. Hillary is always looking out for us.

I’m getting repeated pings from liberals about Condi and Powell both having a private server. Who has a good pushback on that?

I have to take exception to the insinuation that the server was physically insecure. We know nothing about the circumstances surrounding the operation. Did Platte River have technical people on-site 24/7 monitoring the equipment? Many server room operations don't -- but this is a small company using a residential building where employees lived in the same building, fer cry eye. Also, I notice in the picture that the particular apartment that was being used as the "server room" had *no* markings other than the apartment number -- that's lots of points for physical security.

As for when the server was in Clinton's house, if the Secret Service was co-located in the house, that speaks for good physical security, too.

Yes, physical security is important, but you have to look at the entire attack surface presented to the world. With not a lot of effort, one can reduce that surface to a very small footprint.

Part of the analysis of the attack surface would include which operating system was running on the server box, and the number of services the box exposes to the Internet. The more services, the more opportunity for successful penetrations. Not to mention updating the software regularly to close security holes.

If I was doing an investigation, I would concentrate more on network security at the two locations. Did they have a NAT (Network Address Translation) box acting as a cut-out to the mail server? (If you don't have direct access to a server, you have a hell of a time breaking into it.) How about intrusion detection and mitigation? Did the company sell co-located servers, which would allow an outsider access to the inside network? What network protection was provided at Clinton's house -- not too many people would have security appliances in a private residence. Do YOU have a Cisco ASA (Adaptive Security Appliance) stuck somewhere in your home?

I would suspect the FBI either knows this, or hires professional security consultants who do.

Something to consider: hard disks are VERY EASY to swap. What if, before presenting the server box, someone swapped the old hard drive with a freshly wiped $135 (Office Depot price) drive, and further did a fresh install of software? Hard to read out data that never resided on the hard drive, no matter how many layers of magnetic recording you delve into. And how would you tell the difference between that fresh drive that has been wiped, and a used drive that has been wiped?

Yes, I've done system and network administration at a Web hosting company. Not in a bathroom closet, but in a storefront. The server room was behind substantial walls and used biometric locks. And its own alarm system.

Did I mention that I have my own mail server in the kitchen? Unlike the Clinton server, it's Linux based, and it sits behind NAT (another Linux box, no services running, acting as my firewall for my home network) so that it's not openly accessible to attackers in the world.

Time to prepare some more popcorn as this farce plays out.

I’m actually not a big Dylan fan, but it’s a perfect metaphor for where I live. (mostly) Thanks.

The company's controversial vice president of sales David DeCamillis is also said to be a 'big Democrat' supporter who offered his house to Joe Biden for the party's convention held in Denver in 2008. It will be the small scale of the firm and its own home-made arrangements which will raise the most significant questions over security and over what checks Clinton's aides made about how suitable it was for dealing with what new transpires to be classified material.

The emails have been wiped clean - these dem electronic centers know what they're doing... they intercepted Newt's phone conversations years ago. The FBI won't find anything...

This is all post-discovery and post-erasure. Platte is not the right place to look. The FBI needs to get Bryan Pagliano into protective custody/witness protection NOW. I firmly believe his life is in severe danger.

Interesting how a British tabloid the Daily Mail can do a in depth story like this while the US media, although not ignoring the story entirely, are tip toeing around on the periphery.

How convenient. To clear the server they just needed to call Mr. Rooter.

Doesn’t matter if it was in the BATHROOM or not. What matters is that Hill needs to go to jail.
