December 17, 20169 yr Russians Also Tried to Hack Republicans, Were Foiled By Security Measures | Mediaite Maybe the DNC should ask the RNC for help on cyber security. That's a bit simplistic to infer, isn't it? Having just spent about 15 months working with a team to improve our security and meet PCI compliance standards, I know that nothing is "standard" when it comes to hacking. And no security is 100% secure against all attempts and seemingly by the hour, new threats are introduced.

My understanding is both the DNC and RNC recieved identical phising attempts and one security worked the other didn't.
December 17, 20169 yr I agree with you in principle. My understanding is both the DNC and RNC recieved identical phising attempts and one security worked the other didn't. It's kind of a "there but for the grace of God go I" moment for the RNC. It could have been a different phishing attempt and the opposite occurred.
December 17, 20169 yr Author It's kind of a "there but for the grace of God go I" moment for the RNC. It could have been a different phishing attempt and the opposite occurred. Again I don't disagree with you. The point of this is the fact Russia didn't care who won if they hacked. They wanted panic. My problem has been with reporting linking Trump to Russia. The hysteria is dishonest.
December 17, 20169 yr Different types of attacks. Correct, the RNC was attempted to be hacked, one long time employee that was no longer in the loop. They tried once didn't succeed and stopped. Many in the DNC and players there. Many attempts made on many individuals. At least call it correctly.
December 17, 20169 yr Author How do we know the RNC wasn't hacked? As of now the FBI and the RNC says they weren't. I haven't seen evidence of a unicorn either. So therefore as of now I bleive both are false.
December 17, 20169 yr How do we know the RNC wasn't hacked?How do we know that the DNC was hacked? If one trusts the FBI in the former case, should one not trust the FBI in the latter instance? I don't trust Obama's heavily politicized federal government in either case, but that is just me.
December 17, 20169 yr As of now the FBI and the RNC says they weren't. I haven't seen evidence of a unicorn either. So therefore as of now I bleive both are false. I missed the report saying that the FBI believes the RNC wasn't hacked.

December 17, 20169 yr Do you not believe the intelligence community who were quoted by name?I don't believe anybody who works for Obama who I do not know personally. Besides, when a headline is a lie, I don't bother reading an article. I avoid wasting a lot of my time by doing so. If the FBI cannot be trusted to bring justice to criminal gang leaders like Hillary Clinton, then it cannot be trusted at all.

Cop out to allow you to only believe what fits an agenda.
