BREAKING: Wikileaks Releases “Largest Ever Publication Of Confidential CIA Documents”

Source; http://americanmilitarynews.com/2017/03/breaking-wikileaks-releases...

On Tuesday, Wikileaks published thousands of documents that they claim are confidential documents straight from the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence. The long-awaited release includes 8,761 documents that account for “the entire hacking capacity of the CIA.” Julian Assange says that the released documents are the first batch in a series of “Vault 7” leaks.

Wikileaks released this press release on their website:

Today, Tuesday 7 March 2017, WikiLeaks begins its new series of leaks on the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. Code-named “Vault 7” by WikiLeaks, it is the largest ever publication of confidential documents on the agency.

The first full part of the series, “Year Zero”, comprises 8,761 documents and files from an isolated, high-security network situated inside the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virgina. It follows an introductory disclosure last month of CIA targeting French political parties and candidates in the lead u....

Recently, the CIA lost control of the majority of its hacking arsenal including malware, viruses, trojans, weaponized “zero day” exploits, malware remote control systems and associated documentation. This extraordinary collection, which amounts to more than several hundred million lines of code, gives its possessor the entire hacking capacity of the CIA. The archive appears to have been circulated among former U.S. government hackers and contractors in an unauthorized manner, one of whom has provided WikiLeaks with portions of the archive.

“Year Zero” introduces the scope and direction of the CIA’s global covert hacking program, its malware arsenal and dozens of “zero day” weaponized exploits against a wide range of U.S. and European company products, include Apple’s iPhone, Google’s Android and Microsoft’s Windows and even Samsung TVs, which are turned into covert microphones.

Since 2001 the CIA has gained political and budgetary preeminence over the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA). The CIA found itself building not just its now infamous drone fleet, but a very different type of covert, globe-spanning force — its own substantial fleet of hackers. The agency’s hacking division freed it from having to disclose its often controversial operations to the NSA (its primary bureaucratic rival) in order to draw on the NSA’s hacking capacities.

By the end of 2016, the CIA’s hacking division, which formally falls under the agency’s Center for Cyber Intelligence (CCI), had over 5000 registered users and had produced more than a thousand hacking systems, trojans, viruses, and other “weaponized” malware. Such is the scale of the CIA’s undertaking that by 2016, its hackers had utilized more code than that used to run Facebook. The CIA had created, in effect, its “own NSA” with even less accountability and without publicly answering the question as to whether such a massive budgetary spend on duplicating the capacities of a rival agency could be justified.

In a statement to WikiLeaks the source details policy questions that they say urgently need to be debated in public, including whether the CIA’s hacking capabilities exceed its mandated powers and the problem of public oversight of the agency. The source wishes to initiate a public debate about the security, creation, use, proliferation and democratic control of cyberweapons.

Once a single cyber ‘weapon’ is ‘loose’ it can spread around the world in seconds, to be used by rival states, cyber mafia and teenage hackers alike.

Julian Assange, WikiLeaks editor stated that “There is an extreme proliferation risk in the development of cyber ‘weapons’. Comparisons can be drawn between the uncontrolled proliferation of such ‘weapons’, which results from the inability to contain them combined with their high market value, and the global arms trade. But the significance of “Year Zero” goes well beyond the choice between cyberwar and cyberpeace. The disclosure is also exceptional from a political, legal and forensic perspective.”

Wikileaks has carefully reviewed the “Year Zero” disclosure and published substantive CIA documentation while avoiding the distribution of ‘armed’ cyberweapons until a consensus emerges on the technical and political nature of the CIA’s program and how such ‘weapons’ should analyzed, disarmed and published.

Wikileaks has also decided to redact and anonymise some identifying information in “Year Zero” for in depth analysis. These redactions include ten of thousands of CIA targets and attack machines throughout Latin America, Europe and the United States. While we are aware of the imperfect results of any approach chosen, we remain committed to our publishing model and note that the quantity of published pages in “Vault 7” part one (“Year Zero”) already eclipses the total number of pages published over the first three years of the Edward Snowden NSA leaks.

I wonder, if WikiLeaks is a threat to the CIA, wouldn't they hunt him down and make his death look like an accident? In other words, somebody's leaking and somebody's letting it happen. Is that on purpose?

A point was brought up on fox that I thought was interesting. Has Wiki Leaks ever leaked anything about Russia. Or China...Why is it always America that they seem to attack with the leaks....Just saying..

The information in the leaks have never been false per Hannity.

My question is who is the one hacking and leaking to Wiki Leaks ?

Our CIA can hack and make it look like Russia did the Hacking.

If they are so tech savvy why is the CIA hackable?

Kevin,

Many people send info to Wiki leaks. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad for the nation. I would much rather they did not release highly classified material

Kevin,

Go to their site and see who else they report on.

My point was that maybe the hacker is someone in the CIA. Disguising it as a Russian hack.

ps....Just throwing out a conspiracy theory . Another angle so to say. Can not rule out anything. If we go down rabbit holes on trying to figure it out. We must include all rabbit holes.

Kevijn,

More likely it is someone from the NSA or a high security clearance contractor.
