Morning, everybody. How you doing today? Welcome back to another episode of mornings with Mark and politics and attacked attribution are chocolate a contribution several times in the show before I have for those of you that are investigator for a number of years. This is an area. I know inside us midterm election.

So that’s obviously high-stakes in the world interesting Lena yesterday Sunday morning. So two days before a voter’s head to the polls the state of Georgia in the state of, Georgia. Statement issued from one of the people who is also a secretary of state voter registration site was a potentially breached by the opposing party.

So there’s two things that’s really interesting year was the timing announcement having an attribution right over the gate. So this happens all the time in the world and what I mean by all the time is a quick attributions are weak after Deuces happen all the time. But also we’re seeing that more and more.

I’m at the state level and end. It was somebody else between us that I don’t like my rival provided state-level over the last year-and-a-half two years were people of making a direct attributions inaccurate accusation cyberattacks. It is possible to make a confident attribution. You need a ton of evidence, right? So this comes back to my years working as investigator.

Give me very careful in how you phrase things and this is what was interesting with us Sunday morning’s report. Motivation here, but it was an unequivocal statement as to who you hear that as an informed or at least now informed reader or consumers creamlie difficult to make outside of a situation where there’s a confession.

Obviously if I say I asked you to take credit for a hack but itself requires evidence on our way from the fridge system that requires as evidence for the system that was preaching and some intermediary intermediary points. You need all of this evidence to gather together to be able to connect the dots to say happened here.

When you’re making to the claim you have Siri, but when you can’t please play I could be wrong if you consume news, whether it’s a different Moana boat on this or any other Corporation in a grain of salt by Willow. Shaker of salt grinder. If you need to be assessment, you’re relying on somebody who obviously especially this case is a great example that has an agenda investigations.

Amazon which they do pretty decently but when people have a conflict of interest or people have an agenda or too close to face to pull him off the case. The reason for that is that what you want to read into the evidence in that will sell your investigation at one point you in wrong directions.

That’s not how you go about it. So I guess I take away today is read everything with a grain of salt when it comes to Cyber attack after douching. Make sure you see evidence yourself with the motivation behind the people making me attribution. I would be wrong, but you need to be clear and confident in the results of the door unbiased investigation and P space.

I get ignoring the politics behind this particular one that I want to dive into politics that never ends. Well, I don’t have a horse in that race was not an observation. How do you read and consume this news if you’re not in the field or do you start naturally ask me questions and I will see you on the show tomorrow.

Have a great one. Morning, everybody. How you doing today? Welcome back to another episode of mornings with Mark and politics and attacked attribution are chocolate a contribution several times in the show before I have for those of you that are investigator for a number of years. This is an area.
