Weeks later, hackers attacked the server so seriously it was shut down

Typical of the clueless misrepresentation you get from the Dinosaur® media. The only time a compromised server gets shut down because of attack detection is when the perps are complete dumbasses. Serious blackhats don't leave any trace of their breaches, and once compromised all but the most sophisticated diagnostic tools would fail to detect that the system ever was (or even still is) compromised.

Hillary's IT people have no clue whatsoever when or how many times the server was breached, and the claim that the server was "shut down" because of attacks is either willful ignorance or a deliberate attempt to mislead.

Well, there are 100 script kiddies out there for every “serious blackhat”, and those script kiddies are often so stupid that they freeze up the machines that they are able to get access to by doing stupid things like setting up ftp servers or email servers on the machines and draining all the system resources.

or...it could all be a big misdirection??

I recall reading a post on here a couple weeks ago something to the effect that the real server that she used was cleaned and has disappeared.

the emails that she has turned over were from a separate server.

there was another IT guy that actually set it up & I think he sat up the DNC server, too.

it makes it look like Pagliano was more like a tech that worked for someone higher in IT.

let me see if I can dig that info up.

he's the guy they need to talk to.

*********************************************

That’s pretty much on par with Hilly saying “ ..... it had numerous safeguards. It was on property guarded by the Secret Service. And there were no security breaches.

Willful ignorance or deliberate attempt to mislead? Deliberate attempt to mislead .... implying that because the SS were on the property, there were no security breaches. The low info idiots have/will go for that.

You forgot “In over their boots” which in IT parlance means incompetent hacks.

Does anyone know....

If you do not lock your doors and a would-be thief walks in, has he committed any crime?

I remember reading about a month ago, that Hillary had her password disabled. I know from past experience what that means is anyone who tried to login would have instantly been let in WITHOUT even trying to hack in. The system would not have even asked for any password.

Well, they also tried to say the server was attacked with an assault rifle but the editor told them that angle probably wouldn't fly.
