Hackers targeted Clinton’s private mail server

Hillary Clinton’s private email server, which stored some 55,000 pages of emails from her time as secretary of state, was the subject of attempted cyber attacks from China, South Korea, and Germany after she left office in early 2013, according to a document obtained by The Associated Press.

While the attempts were apparently blocked by a “threat-monitoring” product that Clinton’s employees connected to her network in October 2013, there was a period of more than three months from June to October 2013 when that protection had not been installed, according to a letter from Ron Johnson, a republican senator from Wisconsin, chairman of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee.

That means her server was possibly vulnerable to cyber attacks during that time.
