I'm thinking a secret server could easily be cracked by CIA or FBI

I’m sure none of Trumps staff knows much about technology, they’ll probably start deleting things. If law enforcement can get the physical server they’ll be able to recover everything

1. The idea that they could delete files is what worries me.

I know nothing about this type of technology. Is it in a "box" or a cloud? One box or a network? Could someone on our side have copies? Can you print these documents out? I wish someone on MSNBC or CNN could get an expert to discuss the technological aspect.

2. That server is probably managed by a DOD agency.

With the right subpoenas/orders, they would let the information out.

3. It's not a 'secret server'.

It's a government server that holds especially secret information (a compartmented segment of Top Secret referred to as 'codeword'...essentially 'above Top Secret'). No need to 'crack' it.

By putting stuff on it that did not fall into the Codeword category, Dumb Donnie was once again breaking every rule in the book about handling classified information.

7. Right.

4. Nothing can be deleted from that server.

It is all backed up on the cloud which means all the info is spread across multiple servers, in multiple locations, and constantly re-encrypted. it can't be removed but it can be accessed.

5. Excellent news.

That's incredibly reassuring.

6. Re encrypted, interesting.

Ususally multi layered or re-encryption actually makes the process less stealthy. It leaves a portion of the encrypted data less random. Those bits can make cracking easier. Just sayin. I won't even discuss cloud storage.

8. I seriously doubt that. The cloud is inherently

unsecure.
