Cyber Security Expert Col. Phil Waldron: Dominion was Connected to Internet on Election Day and Communicating Overseas
American Greatness ^ | November 30, 2020 | Debra Heine

Posted on 11/30/2020 6:32:23 PM PST by Golden Eagle

Members of President Donald Trump’s legal team held a public hearing Monday with select members of Arizona’s legislature to gather and examine evidence of 2020 election irregularities and fraud in the state.

The point of the “fact-finding mission,” led by Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis, was to collect evidence for Arizona lawmakers that would justify holding a special session to investigate further.

Giuliani’s first witness at the was officer Retired Army Colonel Phil Waldron, a cybersecurity expert who spent half of his 30-year military career as a cavalry officer, conducting armed reconnaissance, and the last half of his career in information warfare.

Waldron stated that the common software in most of the automated systems operating in the United States today come from Smartmatic Voting Systems and are vulnerable to hackers or on-site manipulation.

Waldon said that his “white hat hackers” had witnessed Dominion communicating with overseas servers, directly contradicting fired Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Director Chris Krebs, who said the 2020 election was “the most secure in American history” and that “there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.”

He said his team used a reconnaissance tool to look at the Dominion voting network on Nov. 3., confirming that the it was connected to the internet, and that “there were plenty of vulnerabilities” allowing hackers to “penetrate the system.”

Team Trump had another great presentation today. Please support them especially here at FR. If you feel the need to attack other Republicans save it for the RINO’s.

Anyone know what precisely was going OCONUS (Outside Continental US) for election processing?

From the little I've gleaned from our atrocious USA press, I presume it was state vote tallies and aggregation.

Anyone find any detailed accounting of this?

Now that this evidence is presented, the courts just should verify the existence of the software on any voting machine used, then asked for a detailed explanation of where the votes were shaved and give to the other candidate, and where the the commands where coming from.

1,2,3; verify code, show symptoms, who did it.

Giuliani's cybersecurity expert witness, retired Army Colonel Phil Waldron, in the Arizona hearing today, claimed that the Dominion voting machine network was connected directly to the internet during the election on Nov. 3rd and was openly vulnerable to hackers and manipulation of votes by the Smartmatic Voting Systems.

It is a federal crime to have the voting machine connected to the internet. And yet the governor certifies the votes today for Biden, knowing teethe system was compromised. How does the he reconcile that claim with his statement that Arizona has a strong election system?

I'm from Arizona originally and lived there for over 50 years before leaving he state when I retired. Even though I never voted for him because I recognized his duplicity, the state produced that backstabber to the GOP, John McCain.

I'm just sayin'....

No he didn’t.

He said they looked at traffic from dominionvoting.com which is the company’s corporate network, not the voting machines.

Unless many people are lying the tabulating machines aren’t connected to the internet, and he didn’t claim they were.

On Dominion pointed to as being "secure" because it doesn't connect to internet:

Witness Col. Phil Waldron: These machines have many access points to internet. These machines ARE connected to internet. Dominion User Manual instructs how. Server traffic showed connections.— Chanel Rion OAN (@ChanelRion) November 30, 2020

And likely the DOD and the Trump team were watching the fraud in real time as it happened.

Are you trying to set the record on FR for how many times someone can be proven wrong? You have to be getting close. Starting to wonder if that may be your actual goal at this point? In this case, it looks he said the Dominion machines were connected to the internet at least twice in his statements, despite your claim he never did.

https://www.ntd.com/dominion-systems-were-connected-to-internet-during-election-cybersecurity-expert_534481.html

“The Dominion suite user manual is about an inch and a half thick. My team went back through the user manual and looked at all the instances where in the user’s manual, it tells operators to connect the ethernet cords to the router, and it is, the systems are connected to the Internet,” Phil Waldron, a cybersecurity expert and retired Army Colonel, told a public hearing in Arizona.

“Our teams looked at spirographs on the Dominion network on Election Day and showed the increased web traffic, Internet traffic on Election Day for Dominion servers,” he said, adding later: “In a nutshell, these systems are not what you’ve been told, if you’ve been told anything. They are connected to the Internet.“

“The Dominion suite user manual is about an inch and a half thick. My team went back through the user manual and looked at all the instances where in the user’s manual, it tells operators to connect the ethernet cords to the router, and it is, the systems are connected to the Internet,”

He's basing this on the fact that the manual states the machines have physical ethernet connections. That's stupid.

“Our teams looked at spirographs on the Dominion network on Election Day and showed the increased web traffic, Internet traffic on Election Day for Dominion servers,”

In fact he showed the "spirograph" at the hearing and said it was for the dominionvoting.com network.

Dominionvoting.com is the corporate network, not the voting machines.

Even if the voting machines were networked it would be with the local precinct network, not with the Dominion corporate network.

You have a choice. You can assume that Waldron is correct that because the voting machines have an ethernet adapter it means they were communicating with Frankfurt, or you can believe that Trump's Director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the manufacturer of the machines, and the bipartisan state election officials across the country all engaged in a massive conspiracy to say the machines aren't connected to the internet when they really are.

What do you think is the minimum number of people who are in on this conspiracy?

The CISA has about 3300 employees. Let's say at least 25% of them would know something as basic as whether voting machines are on the internet.

Next we have the FBI which works closely with CISA, so assume another couple of thousand.

We'll ignore Dominion for now since we know they're corrupt.

Let's look at the states. Dominion machines were used in 28 states this election, so in addition to all the election officials there have to be hundreds of IT techs per state who know the architecture of the voting systems.

We're probably up to at least 8000 (and probably closer to 80,000) people who would have to know that Trump's CISA director, Dominion, and all the state election officials are lying, yet none of them have come forward.

Do you really believe that?

The machines shouldn’t be hooked to anything - LAN or WAN or Internet !

If they are they potentially compromised !

Every machine that was should have its votes and the subsequent tabulations invalidated !

Simply incorrect. Here is an interface diagram in one if the manuals, that show live remote connections, over the internet, during operation at the polling locations.

Figure 2.2 on page 8 of this document shows the internet connection of the devices:

https://www.sos.state.co.us/pubs/elections/VotingSystems/systemsDocumentation/Dominion/2.02-DemocracySuite-SystemConfigurationOverview-4-19_redacted.pdf

Look down in the bottom right corner. Remote connections, plain as day.

Thanks for making my point.

The diagrams, and the rest of the documentation, make clear that the tabulating machines aren't online. They record the tabulations and images of the ballots on encrypted memory cards. Those files are then transmitted to the Democracy Suite system for reporting, etc.

The voting machines only send data one way and as the diagram shows it's via file transfer.

The memory cards are retained, making it simple to audit, identify and correct any reporting or data aggregation errors - or any nefarious manipulation from Frankfurt.

The tabulating machines aren't connected to the internet and your diagram supports that.

The diagram shows connectivity between all systems, including the tabulating machines. They are not isolated, as you claim. The systems consolidating the counts are the most important anyway.

I haven’t seen this question asked !

Are the Dominion\Smartmatic machines WiFi and\or Bluetooth capable?
