New information on the location of the (Hillary) Clintonemail.com server

Back in March, when the Clinton e-mail story first broke wide, I did my own on-line forensic investigation of where that server might be located, while reading the investigations of others, and I had serious doubts that the server was actually run out of the Clintons’ Chappaqua (NY) home — particularly because people from the […]

[John Batchelor just interviewed me for his show tonight (8/24/15) and asked that I repost this entry from last March. It is more relevant now than ever, with the Department of Justice conducting an investigation into the Clinton staff over possible violations of national security protocols. Meanwhile, here’s a link to all my posts about […]

John asked me about recovery of deleted e-mails on the near-mythical clintonemail.com server; I pointed out that — in my opinion — […]

  [UPDATE 03/12/15 1657 MDT] A “Democratic source” is just now saying that the server was bought with personal funds and was for President Clinton’s office in the Chappaqua house. This sounds like an attempt to fend off any subpoena request based on it having been purchased and/or housed at taxpayer expense. In short, I […]

Over at the amazing Ace of Spaces, we have this nugget of pursuit against the illegal and poorly thought out use of personal email by the former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. As Bruce Webster has been exploring, there are a lot of bad angles to this entire scenario. One item of great interest at […]

Over a period of nearly 16 years — since mid-1999 — I have been retained repeatedly as a consulting and/or testifying expert in litigation involving information technology (IT). Roughly half of my cases involved troubled or failed IT projects involving two or more parties; roughly half are intellectual property disputes (patent, trade secret, copyright); and […]

Physical security of the Clinton e-mail sever

I’ve raised in prior posts (here and here) the issue of physical security of the clintonemail.com e-mal server, which is why were it was located and how it was set up matters. Last night, Mitch LaKind — who has experience setting up secure military e-mail servers — wrote me about the detailed issues surrounding Clinton’s approach. I’ll […]

[UPDATE 03/10/15 0826 MDT] Besides coming to the conclusion (for now, at least) that Confluence Networks is a dead-end, I also have a new post up in which someone with actual government experience setting up secure e-mail servers weighs in on the physical security of the Clinton e-mail server. [END UPDATE] In my prior post […]

[update: 03/09/15 1824 MDT] At this point, I consider Confluence Networks to be a dead-end with regards to the Clinton e-mails. Of course, it still remains a fascinating topic in and of itself, one I may get back to at some point. but not right now. [update: 03/06/15 0756 MST] I have a new article […]
