Hillary Clinton was emailing more than 100 government officials for four years on a personal account. Her office even says the practice was “widely known” to those colleagues, since her address was visible.
So why no red flags?
While Clinton says she followed the rules, questions are mounting over why administration and government information security officials apparently did little to nudge her back into using the government system – which various guidelines make clear is preferred, if not legally required.
Part of the problem may be that a key IT office has been plagued with problems and confusion for years. Plus, the responsibility for email systems is so far-flung across the government that it's unclear whether any one person or agency could be accountable.
“What we have here is a lack of clear ownership of both IT infrastructure and the ability to enforce specific policies within the government,” David Kennedy, founder of cybersecurity firm TrustedSec, told FoxNews.com.
More on this.

it's almost too agonizing, the waiting, for this grandest of schadenfreude visual spectacles to commence.
You can keep your gladiator games.
BUWHAWHAWHAHAHAHAHAAWHAWHAWHAWHA!
Why no red flags???
Because Obama and Clinton are two of the most vicious and brutal politicians this nation has ever had. They will destroy ANYONE who gets in the way of their progressive utopia. Any lowly official that dare question the queen and queen, I mean king, would find themselves unemployed and on the streets of DC.
For any government official to say ‘it’s too confusing’ and it’s not illegal....they are simply bluffing their way out of the argument.
What is the entire purpose of the Blackberry program? Why are thousands upon thousands of Blackberries issued out in the DC region?
Why are protection of government documents (digital and paper-copy) are so important that the Congress even wrote a law to cover these?
What is the purpose of back-ups of email servers....that we have laws in place requiring such behavior and efforts?
A twelve-year-old kid can argue about this being a disconnect. A mature adult cannot argue this. The effort to suggest two cellphone devices were too hard to handle? If you are such a marginal person who can’t handle two email accounts or two cellphones....you’ve got probably over twenty-thousand DC players who fall into this category of being able to handle.... more than capable of handling SUCH responsibilities. Obviously, she’s not capable of handing such duties, which makes you wonder what else she’s not capable of handling.
I have heard confilicting accounts of whether laws were broken. Can anyone cite exact details of what laws were broken?
Everybody knew about it...but no one said anything. The Liberals have a better “code of silence” than the Mafia!
Wow. Incompetence is apparently the excuse for our government to fail to protect its own secrets. To fail to enforce its own laws. Next step will be just ignorance for all laws. And this is the only government on the planet to ever actually nuke another nation. No wonder Putin is in hiding.

That server is at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean by now.
..because they had a shadow government to run, hidden from the prying eyes of the people and the media. Committing treason requires communications to be HIDDEN. She was Morsi’s strongest ally, along with Huma. That ALONE was a huge red flag of treason.
Another possibility that we won't know because the evidence has been concealed is mishandling of classified material. I am sure that she will attempt to avoid these types of issues by deleting emails and will then deny the material is classified. As the originating official for her department she could discuss situations that were classified in nature and then of challenged say that the authority to determine the classification level rests with her.
Wouldn’t it be a kicker if everyone she sent or received emails from or to was subpoenaed and they ALL said they deleted them last week? LOL!
The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) is responsible for the federal government documents (all, period) that are created. Doesn’t matter who you are...if you work for the federal government...it’s under their rules. Records and documents are required to be preserved as evidence. You can include activities, decisions and procedures. Each single agency (DoD, FBI, DoJ, etc) is responsible for maintaining its records in accordance with NARA regulations.
By Hillary skipping the gov’t email account....that’s the first and biggest hit on illegal activity. Direct violation of NARA rules. If she creates an email or document while working as an employee of the gov’t....it’s NOT her property...it’s gov’t property.
This is briefed to any management geek hired by the gov’t and appears in DC for any position. It’s done yearly.
Wouldn't the server itself be required to be registered with the gov't security office and have a number assigned to it for accountability purposes?
Didn’t each recipient have a positive obligation to report an apparent violation of policy and law?
Exactly. Your career would be over if you dared to mention Hillary breaking rules.
Why? Because many people in the administration do it, because they have private agendas and dealings they wish to keep secret. It’s the new omerta.
Supposedly of 1 billion emails by people in the State Department during her reign there, only 60,000 were preserved.
It's all about destroying any evidence that could be used against her.

Like, who was willing to turn a clintoon in and get fosterized for jeopardizing her shot at the wh?
