3 nations tried cyberattacks on Hillary Clinton's private email server: AP

WASHINGTON -- Hillary Rodham Clinton's private email server, which stored some 55,000 pages of emails from her time as secretary of state, was the subject of attempted cyberattacks originating in China, South Korea and Germany after she left office in early 2013, according to a congressional document obtained by The Associated Press.

While the attempts were apparently blocked by a "threat monitoring" product that Clinton's employees connected to her network in October 2013, there was a period of more than three months from June to October 2013 when that protection had not been installed, according to a letter from Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee. That means her server was possibly vulnerable to cyberattacks during that time.

Johnson's letter to Victor Nappe, CEO of SECNAP, the company that provided the threat monitoring product, seeks a host of documents relating to the company's work on Clinton's server and the nature of the cyber intrusions detected. Johnson's committee is investigating Clinton's email arrangement.

A spokesperson for Clinton's presidential campaign characterized the report as "partisan" when approached by CBS News.

What about the time period starting from 2009 to 2013 when Hillary was actually still Sec Of State and one of the top five espionage targets in the world and using a totally unsecured server

Wanna bet those three countries plus dozens of others did get access to Hillary’s server and what we’re seeing now is a whole lot of CYA maneuvering by a ton of folks in DC because of the sensitive material that is now in our enemies possession.

Ya think they got past her one letter password? (She had the software modified to accept the longest string she could remember. Always remember that this broad is dumb, dumb, dumb.)

Germany??

Hmmm....you don’t suppose they had caught on to the fact that the NSA had tapped into Herr Merkel’s cell phone and were retaliating?

NSA almost certainly has the full transcripts of EVERYTHING, as it is their business to know if possible leaks or potential breaches could exist, and collect the information that can be extracted through those leaks and breaches. Of course, these are buried so deeply that only the enemy would ever find them.

NSA = No Such Agency

It’s not a cyber attack when they are given the passwords for a minor fee like a 100 million dollars. But Hillary and her crew can then say that the server was attacked and somehow the attackers only needed one attempt in order to figure out the passwords.

Hillary's not worried about US ntl security being compromised. The Clintons are worried sick b/c Obama is obsessed w/ getting his hands on the Clinton servers......and may be using foreign proxies.

The Clinton servers contain secret details of all the Clinton's wealth, their holdings, their offshore numbered accounts, safe deposit boxes....and all the income from their lucrative arms deals, US uranium mines, gold mining, oil reserves, etc etc etc.

Obama feels shortchanged by the conniving Clintons. He was supposed to get a cut of everything......but he's been reading about deals he never knew existed.

Getting ahold of the Clinton servers is Obama's mi$$ion or else the peevish Michele might get physical.

I’m waiting for Snowden to bust this whole thing wide open.
