For now, federal authorities characterize the Justice Department inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s private email server as a security situation: a simple matter of finding out whether classified information leaked out during her tenure as secretary of state, and where it went.

At the time she said, “I opted for convenience to use my personal email account because I thought it would be easier to carry just one device for my work and for my personal emails instead of two“.

“It was never designed to be secure”.

“What, like with a cloth or something?”

“I don’t know how it works digitally at all“, she added.

But she said she did not know if her server had been wiped clean of data.

NBC News reports that the FBI “will try to figure what’s there, how it got there and who put it there”, one of the sources said.

Reporter: “You said you were in charge of it. Did you wipe the server?”

Clinton last week handed over to the FBI her private server, which she used to send, receive and store emails during her four years as secretary of state.

However, the Clinton interpretation doesn’t account for the fact that the Abedin email did contain particularly sensitive information at the time it was sent. Representatives for the State Department maintain, however, that it would be unreasonable to impose a deadline for the release of 600 emails from Clinton’s personal accounts that Judicial Watch also seeks.

So, we would be going through the same because other agencies get to make the same claims, like, you know this may not have been an issue in 2009, but now it is. However, in most cases, those decisions are made with the knowledge that government-controlled email servers exist as a backup. I was the official.

Three hundred five more of Clinton’s emails are now reportedly under review by U.S. intelligence agencies for possibly containing classified information.

After resisting for months, Clinton turned over the computer server to investigators last week.

Clinton defended her email practices by saying that the current discussion is the result of an interagency “disagreement” about what constitutes classified material. An inspector general for the State Department said recently that several emails sent to Clinton did include such classified material – signaling that the transmission of those emails may have risked violating government guidelines for the handling of classified material.

DeCamillis, for his part, told the Post that Platte River treats “every customer with the same level of technical expertise, security and redundancy”, and does not blame the Clintons for any negative publicity the firm has received.
