FLASHBACK (NOV 2020)
Trump firestop US cybersecurity officialChris Krebsfor debunking false election claims
Zack Whittaker@zackwhittaker / 4:25 PM PST-November 17, 2020
Chris Krebs, one of the most senior cybersecurity officials in the U.S. government, has been fired.
Krebs served as the director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) since its founding in November 2018 until he was removed from his position on Tuesday. It's not immediately clear who is currently heading the agency. A spokesperson for CISA did not immediately comment.
PresidentTrump fired Krebsin a tweet late on Tuesday,citing a statementpublished by CISA last week, whichfound there was "no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."Trump, who has repeatedly made claims of voter fraud without providing evidence, alleged that CISA's statement was "highly inaccurate."
Shortly after, Twitter labeled Trump's tweet for making a "disputed" claim about election fraud.
"The recent statement by Chris Krebs on the security of the 2020 Election was highly inaccurate, in that there were massive improprieties and fraud - including dead people voting, Poll Watchers not allowed into polling locations, "glitches" in the voting machines which changed..."
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 18, 2020
Reuters first reported the news of Krebs' potential firing last week.
Krebs was appointed by President Trump to head the newly created cybersecurity agency in November 2018, just days after the conclusion of the midterm elections. He previously served as an undersecretary for CISA's predecessor, the National Protection and Programs Directorate, and also held cybersecurity policy roles at Microsoft.
During his time in government, Krebs became one of the most vocal voices in election security, taking the lead during 2018 and in 2020, which largely escaped from disruptive cyberattacks, thanks to efforts to prepare for cyberattacks and misinformation that plagued the 2016 presidential election.
He was"one of the few peoplein this administrationrespected byeveryone onboth sidesof the aisle," said Sen.Mark Warner, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, in a tweet.
Krebs is the latest official to leave CISA in the past year. Brian Harrell, who oversaw infrastructure protection at the agency, resigned in August after less than a year on the job, and Jeanette Manfra left for a role at Google at the end of last year. Cyberscoop reported Thursday that Bryan Ware, CISA's assistant director for cybersecurity, resigned for a position in the private sector.

either that or they're lying cunts.
think they may also be using weasel moves
this article says election device have cell modems.
So the weasel move is when asked if devices are connected to the internet, they can say no
and are technically sorta not lying since they are connected to cell networks

'Online and vulnerable': Experts find nearly three dozen U.S. voting systems connected to internet
A team of election security experts used a "Google for servers" to challenge claims that voting machines do not connect to the internet and found some did.
Jan. 10, 2020, 6:36 PM EST
By Kevin Monahan, Cynthia McFadden and Didi Martinez
It was an assurance designed to bolster public confidence in the way America votes: Voting machines "are not connected to the internet."
Then Acting Undersecretary for Cybersecurity and Communications at the Department of Homeland Security Jeanette Manfra said those words in 2017, testifying before Congress while she was responsible for the security of the nation's voting system.
So many government officials like Manfra have said the same thing over the last few years that it is commonly accepted as gospel by most Americans. Behind it is the notion that if voting systems are not online, hackers will have a harder time compromising them.
But that is an overstatement, according to a team of 10 independent cybersecurity experts who specialize in voting systems and elections. While the voting machines themselves are not designed to be online, the larger voting systems in many states end up there, putting the voting process at risk.
That team of election security experts say that last summer, they discovered some systems are, in fact, online.
"We found over 35 [voting systems] had been left online and we're still continuing to find more,"Kevin Skoglund, a senior technical advisor at the election security advocacy group National Election Defense Coalition, told NBC News.
The three largest voting manufacturing companies - Election Systems &Software, Dominion Voting Systems and Hart InterCivic - have acknowledged they all put modems in some of their tabulators and scanners. The reason? So that unofficial election results can more quickly be relayed to the public. Those modems connect to cell phone networks, which, in turn, are connected to the internet.
The largest manufacturer of voting machines, ES&S, told NBC News their systems are protected by firewalls and are not on the "public internet." But both Skoglund and Andrew Appel, a Princeton computer science professor and expert on elections, said such firewalls can and have been breached.
"AT&T and Verizon and so on try and protect as best they can the security of their phone network from the rest of the internet, but it's still part of the internet," Appel explained. "There can still be security holes that allow hackers to get into the phone network."
The 35 systems Skoglund's team found represent a fraction of total voting systems nationwide, though he believes they only captured a portion of the systems that are or have been online. Earlier this week,Skoglund showed NBC three election systems were still online even after officials had been told they were vulnerable.

here's where she went.
Jeanette Manfra, a senior cybersecurity official at the Department of Homeland Security, will join Google's (Nasdaq: GOOGL) cloud business in January as global director of security and compliance, CyberScoop reported Wednesday.
The report said Manfra will help spearhead a Google initiative aimed at helping customer secure cloud-based systems and services.
Her move to rejoin the private sector comes after the technology company received Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program High authorization for its cloud platform.

DHS's Jeanette Manfra to join Google's cloud division
One of the U.S. government's most influential cybersecurity officials is heading to Google.
Jeanette Manfra will take a job at the tech giant's cloud division in January after leaving her post as assistant director for cybersecurity at the Department of Homeland Security.
Manfra will be global director of security and compliance as part of a new security team at Google Cloud, the company said in a statement to CyberScoop. She will help lead a new "Office of the CISO" initiative at Google Cloud to bolster security with Cloud customers, the company said.
"She will lend her considerable experience in cybersecurity toward helping our customers, particularly those in regulated industries, build and maintain the highest levels of security and trust into their technical infrastructure and services," a Google Cloud spokesperson said.
Manfra could not be reached for comment.

Senior DHS cyber official Jeanette Manfra to step down
Jeanette Manfra, a senior cybersecurity official at the Department of Homeland Security, plans to step down from her position, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
DHS officials are preparing an internal announcement about Manfra's departure that could come as soon as this week, two sources told CyberScoop.
Manfra has been a key liaison for the agency, speaking about cyberthreats to U.S. supply chains, election infrastructure, and industrial control systems to both the private sector and Congress. She has also represented DHS at top cybersecurity conferences like RSA and DEF CON.

Senior DHS cyber official to step down
Jeanette Manfra, a top official within the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) cyber agency, announced Thursday that she will leave her position at the end of the year.
Manfra, who serves as the assistant director for Cybersecurity and Communications within the DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), tweeted that stepping down was "not an easy decision."
"After 12 years at DHS, I'll be leaving @CISAgov at the end of this year," Manfra wrote. "This is not an easy decision, as it's been one of my greatest honors to work alongside such a remarkable team on this incredibly important mission."
House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and cybersecurity subcommittee Chairman Cedric Richmond (D-La.) praised Manfra in a joint statement on Thursday, specifically highlighting her efforts to improve election security and advance the cybersecurity of federal networks.
"She served as a steady hand through CISA's transition to become an operational component, staying above the political fray to work with Members on both sides of the aisle to ensure CISA will be well-positioned to carry out its critical cybersecurity mission as cyber threats continue to evolve," Thompson and Richmond said.
Manfra tweeted that the establishment of CISA last year was one way DHS had "made great strides towards protecting our country from cyber threats." CISA was formally created through a bill signed into law by President Trump in late 2018, out of what was previously the National Protection and Programs Directorate.
Manfra also thanked the "federal, state, local and private sector partners" of CISA, writing that "this collaboration is key to our success."
CyberScoop first reported on Wednesday that Manfra would step down.
Prior to working at DHS in multiple cyber roles, Manfra served as the director for Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity on the National Security Council staff at the White House, and also previously served in the U.S. Army as a communications specialist and as a military intelligence officer.
Manfra has testified before Congress many times on multiple cybersecurity issues and has served as a public face for CISA at numerous cybersecurity conferences.
Manfra stepping down marks the first major leadership shakeup for CISA, which has seen its top ranks remain stable despite leadership shifts in other DHS agencies, and in the department as a whole.

Russian hackers likely scanned election systems in all 50 states during 2016 race: Obama cyber czar
Russian hackers likely probed election systems in all 50 states during to the 2016 U.S. presidential race, the Obama administration's former cyber czar said Wednesday - more the double the number previously given by the Department of Homeland Security.
Michael Daniel, the White House cybersecurity coordinator from 2012 to 2017, made the remark while appearing on Capitol Hill during a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing involving Russian interference in the race. "We have received from the Department of Homeland Security inconsistent and varying numbers on the number of states whose systems were scanned by the Russians," said Sen. Susan Collins, Maine Republican. "How likely do you think it is that Russian cyber actors at least scanned all 50 states?" "I think it is highly likely," responded Mr. Daniel, who was the Obama administration's top cyber policy official at the time of the election. Mr. Daniel said he believed that "there was no reason why they wouldn't have at least attempted recognizance against all 50," adding: "It was more likely that we hadn't detected it than it didn't occur.
The Russian government waged an attack against the 2016 election that used state-sponsored hackers and other operatives to disrupt the campaign of Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, the U.S. intelligence community concluded near the end of the Obama administration in January 2017.
Four months later, the DHS under President Trump said that Russian hackers had eyed state election systems as well. "We determined that internet-connected election-related networks in 21 states were potentially targeted by Russian government cyber actors," Samuel Liles, acting director of the cyber division for the DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis, told the Senate Intelligence Committee last June. "It is important to note that none of these systems were involved in vote tallying."
Two months ago, meanwhile, the top cyber official at DHS said that more than 21 states were likely probed. "The 21 states references the visibility that we had, whether that was the intelligence community or the sensors, of Russian targeting of state infrastructure related to elections," Jeanette Manfra, the head of cybersecurity at DHS, said at an April 24 Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing. "I think we can assume that the majority of the states were probably a target," Ms. Manfra added. Addressing Russia's operations Wednesday, Mr. Daniel said that "understanding what happened in 2016 is really critical to protecting ourselves in future elections." "Maintaining state and local control of elections is very important, but it's not realistic to expect them on their own to go up against nation-state actors," he added. Russia has denied meddling in the 2016 race. Moscow's alleged interference remains under investigation in the House, Senate and Department of Justice. The Trump administration eliminated the role of cybersecurity coordinator earlier this year.

Q Research General #1334: Salvaging Dough
Deep state setting their own stage!
Australian companies, including government agencies, are among those to have reportedly been caught in an alleged worldwide cyber-attack by Russian hackers.
ABC reports Australian, British and US authorities have claimed Russian government-backed hackers have infected "millions of machines" globally as part of an espionage campaign.
They claim the campaign is specifically targeting government agencies and businesses.
While hundreds of local businesses have been affected by the cyber attack, no information was compromised, the ABC said.
In a joint call with reporters White House cybersecurity coordinator Roby Joyce said: "When we see malicious cyber activity, whether it be from the Kremlin or other malicious nation-state actors, we are going to push back."
US Department of Homeland Security cybersecurity official Jeanette Manfra said the attack was so widespread it could reach "large enterprises to small home offices".
British and US governments said they intend to provide organisations with technical details on the attacks so determine if they have been hacked and prepare for any future attacks.
In February, the White House pointed the finger at Russia for the 2017 'NotPetya' attack. The ransomware attack locked up computer files across the world and demanded bitcoin currency for its release.
US authorities continue to believe Russia also meddled with the 2016 US election. However, Moscow and US President Donald Trump deny such claims.

Senior DHS cyber official Jeanette Manfra to step down
Jeanette Manfra, a senior cybersecurity official at the Department of Homeland Security, plans to step down from her position, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
DHS officials are preparing an internal announcement about Manfra's departure that could come as soon as this week, two sources told CyberScoop.
Manfra has been a key liaison for the agency, speaking about cyberthreats to U.S. supply chains, election infrastructure, and industrial control systems to both the private sector and Congress. She has also represented DHS at top cybersecurity conferences like RSA and DEF CON.
