The company that Hillary Clinton paid to manage her private email network was the victim of a massive international hack during the period in which Clinton was employing it, Breitbart News has learned.
Hillary Clinton used the company Internap as the internet service provider for her private email account during her tenure as Secretary of State. Internap, based in Atlanta, has a facility in Manhattan, near the the physical location of the IP address for clintonemail.com.
In March 2011, the security company RSA was hacked. The hackers got into the company’s system through a malware-infested email sent to an employee, then installed a “backdoor” and stole data. RSA called it “an extremely sophisticated cyber attack.”
RSA was not the only victim of the attack. A victim list showed that more than 760 other organizations were also “compromised.” Internap appeared five times on the full victim list.
Five different “blocks” of Internap hosted services – which could include websites, email services, and email-storage and cloud services – were hit in the 2011 attack. A computer expert tells Breitbart News that Internap networks could have been used by the hackers to help it get to RSA or other targets.
China was the home source of 299 of the 338 command and control networks that the hackers used to carry out the attacks, according to an analysis at the time by cyber security expert Brian Krebbs.

Certainly sounds like a possibility. With this group anything is a possibility
Was thinking between Christmas and New year. But first of the year works too
They had an open line to foreign governments which is why she had her own server. Now they say it was hacked. How convenient.
Just about the most plausible explanation I have seen.
Provable? Unlikely, as the WhiteyHut coverup will continue right up to Jan. 2017.
With the latest on FBI finding hitlery’s “private” emails intact, she will suspend her campaign for health reasons, shortly and will tell all the dems to go with Joe.
Wrong. The driving force behind this deal is Urkel but Urkel has been transparent in his earlier life and so he is blackmail proof
Why don’t they just cut to the chase and ask ANY foreign government for a copy of her emails. India, Pakistan, China, Russia, Syria, Iran I would bet even our British friends all have copies.
The ISP was hacked. Doesn’t mean her server was hacked. A server should (emphasis on should) have additional layers of security so that even if the ISP is compromised, the server is still secure.
Of course, you don’t keep a government email server on a public ISP network in the first place, so I have no confidence that there actually were proper security precautions taken on that end.
It was in her basement. This is just the ISP, you know, the company that runs the line to your house that you connect to the internet through?
I suspect that this was all done entirely on purpose to give “donors” access to sensitive information while retaining some patina of plausible deniability.
All True. but they did recover deleted emails. and that has made the alphabet news.
It's probably that Internap provided the cackler with Internet service to her home, where the server was located.
Working in IT, I find myself just shaking my head, over and over again, about all the screw-ups and outright security violations (not including governmental security violations) that have been committed here.

Funny how that little company went from being in the bathroom of a second floor apartment house with 8 employees when she hired them to a stand alone building with 30 employees just this summer.
