And by thr DNC funded Crowdstrike, they mean a Ukrainian and a one former FBI employee.
And by the DNC-funded Crowdstrike, don’t they really mean a Ukrainian and one former FBI employee?
Contrary to claims made by various liberals, I know of no security audit process, postmortem penetration assessment, or security firm that would ever be satisfied that an incident had been analyzed with "High Confidence" (or any confidence, really) if they could not completely examine every component of a compromised server down to the metal. Not just hard drives, but every module of firmware, eprom, or any other component or attached peripheral with persistent storage, not limited to, but including printers and routers.
Especially if, as has been claimed, a sophisticated state-actor was involved.
For all we know, the DNC servers remained compromised well after the assessment and may still be compromised.
There is no distinction in the declassified part of the report as to who did what analysis. They use the pronoun “we” in presenting the report.
Your accurate analysis means the CIA rating of “High Confidence” is also not correct, as they also were part of the assessment of the DNC servers\wikileaks leaks in the report.
Be nice to have the classified report declassified.
