According to the FBI’s released notes on Hillary Clinton and her server, a Tor user breached Hillary’s server shortly before she left as Secretary Of State just one month prior.
This marks the first confirmed incident that Hillary Clinton’s server was indeed breached by an individual — something that Hillary strongly denied.
In the section titled “cyber targeting” of Clinton’s “personal E-mail and Associated Accounts” there are multiple notes about possible hack attacks and one documented case where another user of Hillary’s private server had their email account breached.
The FBI’s review of server logs revealed that someone accessed an email account on Jan. 5, 2013, using Tor “exit nodes.” Three different IP addresses were used in order to conceal the user’s identity. The owner of account was redacted but their quote was left –
“I’m not familiar with nor have I ever used Tor software.” the anonymous person said.
Tor is a software that was developed under the U.S. Navy for secure communications. Today, Tor is used to circumvent censorship by governments and oppressive regimes. Tor is used by journalists and activists to conceal their identity, communicate and surf the Web without interference. Tor is also used for illegal activities such as funding terrorism, buying/viewing child pornography, buying/selling drugs, and buying/selling unregistered firearms.
Tor’s biggest darkweb market place Silk Road was taken down in 2013 when the FBI raided and arrested it’s owner. Since then, many copycats have emerged with the same result of eventually either being shutdown or raided.
It was revealed today that a remote desktop used for remote server access was turned on by a Clinton aide which is highly vulnerable and susceptible to hack attacks.
Earlier in the year we learned that a Clinton staffer turned off the firewall to try to fix the connection problems Hillary was having between her insecure private server and the State Department’s secure server. This left her server open to hackers for weeks before the firewall was finally turned back on.
Hillary herself instructed aides to remove classified markings and send classified materials insecure. It’s also noted in the FBI’s findings report that Hillary’s e-mail accounts were targeted in multiple “spear phishing” attacks. The FBI noted an e-mail sent to Clinton, “contained a potentially malicious link.” Hilariously, the link Hillary clicked was for porn.
“Open source information indicated, if opened, the targeted user’s device may have been infected, and information would have been sent to at least three computers overseas, including one in Russia.”
