The FBI has begun looking into the security of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail setup, contacting in the past week a Denver-based technology firm that helped manage the unusual system. Also, the FBI contacted Clinton’s lawyer, David Kendall, with questions about the security of a thumb drive in his possession that contains copies of work e-mails Clinton sent during her time as secretary of state.
Intelligence officials expressed concern that some sensitive information was not in the government’s possession and could be “compromised.”
Kendall confirmed the contact, saying: “The government is seeking assurance about the storage of those materials. We are actively cooperating.” A lawyer for the Denver company, Platte River Networks, declined to comment, as did multiple Justice Department officials. What we know about Hillary Clinton's e-mail server(1:42) The FBI is investigating the security of Hillary Clinton's private e-mail server. Here's what we know about the server, who kept it secure and how that's changed. (Gillian Brockell/The Washington Post)
The inquiries are bringing to light new information about Clinton’s use of the system and the lengths to which she went to install a private channel of communication outside government control — a setup that has emerged as a major issue in her campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination. For instance, the server installed in her Chappaqua, N.Y., home as she was preparing to take office as secretary of state was originally used by her first campaign for the presidency, in 2008, according to two people briefed on the setup.
A staffer replaced a server that Clinton’s husband, former president Bill Clinton, had been using in the house. The inquiries by the FBI follow concerns from government officials that potentially hundreds of e-mails that passed through Clinton’s private server contained classified or sensitive information.

Hate to say it but this will go no where
Oh come on. Give it a chance. Benghazi happened only three years ago. S
U.S. intelligence officials are scrambling to contain damage from potentially hundreds of spy agency secrets in Hillary’s private emails...as questions mount over why DOJ has not yet opened a criminal investigation WRT mishandling mountains of classified information....actions far more egregious than ex-CIA Director David Petraeus.....who was prosecuted, and sentenced to two years probation, and a $100,000 fine.
================================================
Let's ask the NY TIMES about criminal implications of Hillary's emails.
Did the NYT report to its readers that a high government official (particularly the Secy of State) to utilize day to day a non-government computer for communications in the performance of their job is in violation of security laws in dozens of ways?
Did the NYT factor in that emails emanating from Hillary's private server contained classified ntl security data?
Did the NYT bother to determine that the US govt tech system is really fussy----particularly about emails from the US State Dept?
Did the NYT determine that a govt official (particularly the Secy of State) cannot simply buy a brand new computer with licenses and programs and expect to have it certified?
Did the NYT report that US govt officials are required to have a government-purchased computer, set up by the govt, utilizing a CACC card cleared technician?
Did the NYT advise readers that even the calendar of the Secy of State is considered classified information?
Last but not least---would the NYT have been this accommodating if the subject of a story was a Republican?

NY TIMES PUBLISHED CLARIFICATION (REPRINT): The Times reported online Thursday night (and in some print editions Friday) that the State Department IG ---and US intelligence agencies had sent a referral to the Justice Department requesting a “criminal investigation” into whether Mrs. Clinton “mishandled sensitive government information” on the email account. That article was based on multiple high-level government sources.
Shortly after the article was published online, however, aides to Mrs. Clinton contacted one reporter to dispute the account. After consultation between editors and reporters, the first paragraph was edited to say the investigation was requested “into whether sensitive government information was mishandled,” rather than into whether Mrs. Clinton herself mishandled information. That type of substantive change should have been noted immediately for readers; instead, a correction was not appended to the article until hours later.
On Friday, another question arose — whether the investigation being sought was a “criminal” inquiry. As other news organizations followed up on The Times’s report, the Justice Department confirmed to them that a “criminal” investigation had been requested. Officials also gave that description again to Times reporters who were rechecking their initial story. But later in the day, the Justice Department and the inspectors general said that the request was not a “criminal referral” but rather a “security referral,” meant to alert the F.B.I. about a potential mishandling of classified information. It was not clear how the discrepancy arose.
what is the purpose of the photo that doesn’t come close to the average view?
Investigating the security? An unaccredited, unapproved AIS is ILLEGAL! There is no need to investigate. Indict!
I guess it is to show that the Kabuki MSM photage that we see is misleading. Frankly, there isn’t enough Vaseline to smear on a lens that would make her look good. She’s past her “sell by date” -——by a lot!
“That’s the biggest one I’ve ever seen!” — /breathless girl voice
Anybody else, and the FBI would have already done their raids.
But after Petraeus - they have far less room to hide. This is bad and the ads will attack both Hillary and Obama’s politicized DOJ. It is a twofer how the American people and the Constitution are getting screwed by these criminals.
The key issue is not the security of the system.
The key thing that she should be prosecuted for is that she HAD the system at all.
Makes no difference if it was super secure. The fact she had it is the offense.
Only if the DOJ and FBI is complicit.
Even then it depends.
Every single bit that ever was destined for that server or that originated from it is still alive.
There's no way this service provider did not back up the server in question.
Additionally there a Service Level Agreement (SLA) and contract.
Who signed it and what did it say?
There's also a trail of trouble tickets and routine chance/service orders. In fact, all communications associated with the service still exist.
We know the server was replace at some point at least once and there are also known times it was down and had to be restored...how did they do that without back-ups? It's impossible to do otherwise.
The server was also most certainly protected by a SPAM service which logged every message in and out.
A major strategic mistake on the part of the Clintons to not hire their own IT staff and build the entirety of their IT infrastructure as now another party outside their control has it all.
So did the FBI serve Clinton with a subpena to confiscate her server, like the would do if it were me.
Judge Napolitano was on Kennedy last night. He stated that one of the Clinton emails that the state department released had Ambassador Chris Steven’s whereabouts listed on the email (it was not related to the attack on Benghazi). As we might gather from what happened in Benghazi this would be classified information. One of the classified documents that General Petreaus was convicted for was his schedule. So it is pretty obvious that even though it was not marked classified, it was classified.
Still a hag but formatted mo bet’ah
is this available?
Exactly. If I did that, I would be escorted from the building and the facility by armed security. I've seen it done. Not for mishandling classified like Hillary. In this particular case an employee lied to a County Sheriff's deputy to protect a lover. The lie was uncovered, and she was immediately escorted out of the building and out of the facility. Immediately as in a guy with his hand on his holstered weapon saying: "Give me your badges, you may take your purse, do not touch anything else nor talk to anyone." Just gone.
Hillary should receive similar treatment. Her crimes are many many times worse and more damaging. My coworker showed poor judgement and lack of trustworthiness. Hillary has been implicated in everything from treason to murder. Why is she not behind bars?
The Justice Department’s investigation into Hillary Clinton will proceed just as diligently as their investigation into Lois Lerner.
They will both be prosecuted after monkeys fly out of Obama’s butt.
