A Secret Service agent assigned to protect former President Bill Clinton performed “network assessments” and information technology troubleshooting for the Clinton Foundation and also provided research on security issues for Bill and Hillary Clinton’s email server in Chappaqua, New York. These revelations are included in FBI interview transcripts released Monday.
Although the time period the agent (whose identity is redacted) was assigned to Bill Clinton’s detail is redacted, as well as the dates the agent worked for the Clinton Foundation, “he… assisted the Clinton Foundation in a case related to theft of information on the Clinton Foundation Information systems.” Yet while Reuters reported in August that the Clinton Foundation was concerned about possible hacking this year, there are no other media reports in prior years regarding stolen information from Foundation computers. The Clinton Foundation did not respond to a request for more information about the work conducted by the Secret Service agent.
