U.S Elections and the Coming Cyber Wars

Hillary Clinton is the leading US Democratic Party candidate. That means if US primaries were on tomorrow, Clinton would win. And she would be running for President next year. But things might be about to change…

As a former US Secretary of State it’s fair to say she has some pretty strong connections in the US government. She is also a former First Lady.

Thus it’s fair to say she has access to a fair bit of top-secret information. As a person in her position, digital security is very important. And in a typical case the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) would give a person in such a position a ‘secure’ email server. Well that’s not the case for Clinton. In fact her choice of email server could swing the US primaries. And in turn impact the 2016 US Presidential elections. Who would have thought an email server could be so important? And who would have thought her decision would create some of the best investment opportunities of the 21st century? 

An email server affecting a presidential race, but the FBI is looking into Hillary Clinton, and not in a good way. Her email set up at home is ‘unusual’ according to government officials.

She doesn’t use the typical government email set up. Instead she has a private account set up by a Denver-based company.
And this is now under question due to one big factor, the security of her email. Remember, Clinton is privy to top-secret information. And the government is worried about the security of said information.

They like control and right now with Clinton, they don’t have it. Let’s me ask you something. Assume you had to choose between two email set-ups. Your decision is solely based on the security that email will provide. Nothing else. One is an email that a national security government agency sets up for you. The other is an email server set up by a private technology company.

Which do you choose? It sounds like a straightforward answer right? You’d go with the government one. Wouldn’t you? Surely they would have the highest level of security? Well…maybe not.
