CyFIR Cybersecurity Report: Deletions and Internet Connections

The CyFIR Report on Friday showed the digital findings from Maricopa County’s forensic audit of the 2020 election. Founder Ben Cotton and his team allegedly found instances of cybersecurity breaches and malfeasance on the part of Maricopa County. Cotton remarked at one point in his presentation, “The election was neither accountable or secure.”

CyFIR’s founder, Ben Cotton, is no stranger to the world of digital forensics. “A technical visionary and pioneer in Cyber Security and Computer Forensics for the U.S. Government and the SOCOM,” Cotton’s bio states:

“[Mr. Cotton is a] twenty-one year veteran of the US Army, Special Operations Command (SOCOM). Mr. Cotton served in both unclassified and classified units fighting the Global War on Terrorism, specializing in sensitive site and digital device exploitation, Computer Network Attack (CNA), and Computer Network Defense (CND).”

Cyber Ninjas’ Vol. 3 “Result Details” shows the details of CyFIR’s findings. The malfeasance and possible criminal activity found by CyFIR shows significant cybersecurity issues; file and log deletions, dual boot hard drives, internet connections, overwriting of data—and the evidence to back up their findings. According to Cotton, neither of the two Maricopa County “audits” found evidence of internet connections.

Cybersecurity issues found by CyFIR were:

The Maricopa County 2020 election was breached. No security patches done in two years since the purchase of the system.

No anti-virus updates in two years since installation.

Same name, same password with Admin privileges throughout the system for the entire County.

The oldest date on the security log was 2/5/2021, with no inclusion of the election period.

The County did not provide Windows Security Logs.

Dual, bootable hard drives were found internally in the system, both bootable to different configurations.

One of the hard drives included outside information from Washington State and South Carolina.

If this 2020 vote was declared null and void, how many House and Senate seats could be affected??

If 100% could/would the Legislature call for an immediate re-vote??

I bet Ben Cotton could help the FBI figure out how to plug in hunter’s laptop.

It doesn’t fall in the “cyber” category, but I thought the issue of the ballot paper was incredibly incriminating. SUPPOSEDLY, all ballots were supposed to be printed on the same, official ballot paper. Instead, there were about 10 different papers used, and NONE of them were the “official” paper. Easy to see that if all legit ballots were on the proper paper, any fraudulent ballots would stand out like sore thumbs. Mix up ten different papers and who knows which ones are the counterfeits?

The lack of security patches and virus database updates is bad, but those flaws are all too common. (Dayglored has sometimes been less than perfect in those respects too.)

OTOH the fact that the Security Log was wiped and reset on Feb 5, 2021 is extremely damning. Somebody needs to swing for that.

But never mind all that -- the only thing that matters is they counted the votes again, and Orange Man Bad still lost. Right?

If a state is found to have an uncertain outcome due to criminal fraud, any federal offices occupied as a result of the election is a nullity. The Representitives and Senators in Congress as a result of the election should be ejected from Congress, and their votes on legislation nullified.

In AZ, 2 Democrat Senators were elected as a result of the election and should be ejected from the Senate as a result of election fraud (fraud vitiates everything). Now Pelosi loses control of the Senate if just AZ is considered. All it takes is a quo warranto to challenge Pelosi as House Speaker and Leahy as Senator Pro Tempore. The net effect is AZ loses Congressional representation as a state until the next Fed election. Essentially the fraud puts us back to the makeup of Congress before the 2020 election, minus the ones who termed out and were not replaced due to election fraud.

And it puts our election status in Art. 3 Sect. 19 territory, where neither the President nor VP qualify by having been elected by a majority of voters that determined the Electoral College whose votes were based on election fraud. (thx Dr. Franklin@FreeRepublic.com)
