Apparently being used by high officials since the Obama admin, no outrage then, but reserved for now. How curious.
Further, the NSA guidance on Signal, as provided in post #254 and elaborated on in post #270 doesn't even say Signal is prohibited from use.
What it does say:
is Signal is permitted.
The 'keyboard error' was a contact entry with the wrong number, the journalists, or adding that journalist to the group chat he wasn't meant to be in.
As I correctly observed in post #270, Signal and its communications are secure, but the user can fall prey to social engineering and clicking the wrong invite link can lead to being compromised.
You have this from which authority again?The government doesn't know if signal is really secure. For all the government knows some other government could have access to a signal employee to help compromise any keys or conversations.
The post you responded to screen grabbed from the NSA notification that:There could be a zero day situation. The government doesn't control the security of Signal. As a result Signal unsurprisingly is not approved to exchange this sort of information in our government.
Do you see which pieces of information which would make it actionable is missing?The Atlantic releases the Signal chat showing Hegseth's detailed attack plans against the Houthis
The Atlantic has released the entire Signal chat among Trump senior national security officials.apnews.com
Exact times coupled with exact strike packages, come on. If that isn't minimum CUI, I'll eat my hat.
Millions upon millions would care. I'm sure that Colbert has far more real fans than Trump does. Stephen Colbert is a national treasure. Donald Trump is a national disaster.Coldbert can **** off and nobody would care.
That group has no shame.It is nice to see a claim of taking full responsibility, whatever that ends up meaning.
But it is difficult to overlook both the gross incompetence of all this, as well as how fast MAGAs rush to defend it, all without much effort by those same predictable hateful MAGAs to be thankful to Jeffrey Goldberg at The Atlantic for not immediately releasing what had happened.
And some of those defenders of Lord Trump blaming Goldberg for something someone else in the MAGA camp did is shameful.
Will Trump release his findings at the same time he releases his findings about Obama’s birth certificate or the 2020 election?Nope.
The Trump administration is, right now, engaged in finding out how a contact in the Signal app had one person's name...and Goldberg's number...and finding out who put that manipulated contact in Waltz's computer.
Locations may kick it up to classified levels, but pre-engagement tweeting times and strike packages...that's minimum CUI.Do you see which piece of information which would make it actionable is missing?
Locations.
I have been involved with computers and software for decades and am familiar with software exploits, server compromise and computer security best practice.You have this from which authority again?
As repeated over and over this policy does not apply to this style of communication. Imagine if it did.The post you responded to screen grabbed from the NSA notification that:
View attachment 67562391
. . is permitted by policy.
Complete bs. You know you can read the texts right? In what world is that not ts information?Further, its been much talk about that the communications contained classified information.
I've also hear counter claims that the communication didn't contain classified information.
That’s a you problem.I don't think that there's been anything definitive on this, beyond politically motivated claims, coming from both sides.
Look for yourself. Come on now. This is just silly.What I'll say is that I know that I don't know if it did, or if it didn't contain classified information.
The scenario that you sketch lends more credence to the keyboarding error theory.Unclassified.
You guys are trying to wish this away with poor excuses.
They ****ed up. There is no evil intent here by anyone. People are human. Covering it up is worse than the actual issue at hand.
At best waltz was going through his contacts, hit Goldberg by mistake and Goldberg being a reporter is gonna click said link. Realizes what the link was but by then the damage is done.
Lol you don't think thise governemt people aren't talking to reporters on erasable apps like signal all the time? Come on now.
Hesberg shouldn't have been giving out details about the strikes either. That's a different issue from waltz and Goldberg. That is classified and should be on approved devices.
The fact that the maga right are not up in arms over that? Typical.
I don't know who's pretending anything of the sort. Do you?But sure let's pretend people like mycroft is right. Who is just waiting for the Trump administration to make something up about how Goldberg cracked the code to get into signal.
Colbert just said our loud what everybody is thinking. The Trump administration is not competent. They do stupid things. They are not smart.Coldbert can **** off and nobody would care.
More was missing as well.Locations may kick it up to classified levels, but pre-engagement tweeting times and strike packages...that's minimum CUI.
Or….don't use Signal to discuss bombing a country.
Crazy concept. Mind blowing, I’m sure.
There's enough there to piece together information that should be controlled. Pre-employment, there's no way you're divulging times and strike packages and it not be CUI at minimum.More was missing as well.
No no routes, no specific units, no specific targets.
How many square miles is the Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen now?
Approximately 203,850 square miles.
Good. Then you also realize that the NSA notification wasn't due to Signal security, but rather a social engineering warning.I have been involved with computers and software for decades and am familiar with software exploits, server compromise and computer security best practice.
None the less, the use of Signal is clearly permitted by policy, as it states.As repeated over and over this policy does not apply to this style of communication. Imagine if it did.
No locations, no routes, no specific units, no specific targets, in essence what would make it actionable intel.Complete bs. You know you can read the texts right? In what world is that not ts information?
It's a 'you problem' to buy into politically motivated over hyping.That’s a you problem.
No locations, no routes, no specific units, no specific targets, in essence what would make it actionable intel.Look for yourself. Come on now. This is just silly.
Charges?Mike Waltz claims ‘full responsibility’ for Signal chat group leaked to journalist.
Has Mike Waltz been charged with any and all appropriate charges for having allowed this leak?
If not, why not?
Ask HillaryHow did we even manage to get by before the internet and smart phones?
The Signal app isn't the problem. It is certified by all the government security agencies as being secure.
“I don’t know that Signal works. I think Signal could be defective to be honest with you,” he said. “Because you use Signal and we use Signal and everybody uses Signal, but it could be a defective platform and we’re going to have to find that out.” -Trump
And that's a BIG hat.The Atlantic releases the Signal chat showing Hegseth's detailed attack plans against the Houthis

And yet, you voted for one....multiple times.The blathering of a comedian really doesn't matter.
This would just be more a point and laugh story if it wasn't for hagseth stating classied docs.The scenario that you sketch lends more credence to the keyboarding error theory.
I'd say that a remediation would be a clearly secure coms phone, and a non-secure coms phone, and not to mix up the two, but that's water under the bridge at this point.
I don't speak for 'MAGA', nor do I have any idea what they would think or do.
I'm observing, taking it all in, digging a bit more here and there, before I distill a bit and form my own opinion.
I don't know who's pretending anything of the sort. Do you?
"I don't pay attention to speculation"Sorry, but I don't pay attention to speculation...especially from a Trump hater.
Sure but that doesn’t matter. Point is they are subject to MiM attacks and other vectors since it’s not a network they control. This is security 101. They chose to violate it.Good. Then you also realize that the NSA notification wasn't due to Signal security, but rather a social engineering warning.
No. Read the policy. Sigh.None the less, the use of Signal is clearly permitted by policy, as it states.
No because I think discussion of attack times, targets and weapons shouldn’t be discussed on public network in any fashion. How is this not common sense to you? Trump world has gone even more insane.No locations, no routes, no specific units, no specific targets, in essence what would make it actionable intel.
It's a 'you problem' to buy into politically motivated over hyping.
No locations, no routes, no specific units, no specific targets, in essence what would make it actionable intel.

How 'classified' can it really be?
I mean besides wanting it to be classified because of political motivations.
