Fact check: President Trump asked Ukraine's president for a 'favor,' according to text of the conversation, involving probing the origins of Mueller's investigation, cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, and 'a server.' Here are the facts.
More important, physical servers are often copied in the course of investigations and the evidence is stored as data, according to experts. Mueller's report confirmed Russia was responsible for hacking the DNC and disseminating damaging emails as part of its campaign to support Trump's White House bid.
Johnston, who left CrowdStrike at the end of 2016 and is now the CEO at Adlumin, declined to comment on the specifics of the DNC investigation. He said creating forensic copies is"perfectly normal practice" in such investigations, however, and noted that along with a careful chain of custody, such copies are admissible in court as evidence."It does sound like an attempt that he’s trying to sow conspiracy theories again," he said.
The firm said in a statement Wednesday that"with regards to our investigation of the DNC hack in 2016, we provided all forensic evidence and analysis to the FBI. As we’ve stated before, we stand by our findings and conclusions that have been fully supported by the U.S. Intelligence community.""Trump still hasn't accepted that Russia interfered in our election, and instead, is using a call with a foreign leader to push conspiracy theories," she told NBC News.
Prior to the news conference, Trump told reporters at the United Nations that his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, is working to find out how the"Russian witch hunt" started. Giuliani, who, is mentioned by Trump during his phone call with Zelenskiy as someone who"very much knows what's happening."
