IT staffers may have compromised sensitive data to foreign intelligence
 BLUF:[NY Post] Wasserman Schultz denies the DNC turned down the FBI’s assistance or that her congressional or DNC e-mails were compromised by Awan. "This whole investigation pivots off Debbie Wasserman Schultz," the official said."It’s clear that large bytes of data were moved off the secure network," said another source close to the investigation, adding that Awan and the other four staffers under investigation had "full and complete access" to lawmakers’ e-mails, calendars, schedules, hearing notes, meeting notes and memos and other sensitive information. Investigators are trying to determine if any classified information was compromised. Although the network that was breached is an unclassified system, it’s possible that members or staff cleared to handle classified information inadvertently sent such information in e-mails after getting classified briefings, sources believe. "Logic dictates that sensitive data was compromised," the senior official speculated. "An accused criminal with close ties to Pakistan had full and complete control over data that went out over the network." Posted by: Besoeker 2017-08-20 |
