just saw this post and copying here, you seem to get it.
SIPRNet is the DoD's classified version of the civilian Internet.
Access is available to trusted allies; Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and New Zealand.
This group is known as the Five Eyes.
SIPRNet was one of the networks accessed by Manning, leaking to WikiLeaks
Can't wait to see the GTA dissolve into ethnic factions when China and India go at it. Markham and Brampton will make Vaughn a neutral zone with based Italians picking off each side while the muslims in mississauga quietly breed out everyone.
Not sure Canada will be any of a better place under Trudeau than America will be if Biden gets in. But I'm pretty sure there will be a civil war of sorts and we'll carve out our own free land (with patriotic Canadians and Americans), and will have Trump as Pres.
All of course if anything goes sidewards from the current plan.
For sure. In fact, BC was thinking of joining the Union back in 1860's, but then Canada (the East at the time) promised us a transcontinental railroad so we would join them.
I wonder what the founders of our country would say now if they saw how f*cked we're getting.
Globalist scumbag Klaus Schwab from the World Economic Forum has been telegraphing this for 6 months now. He literally told us this was going to happen: A "Cyberpandemic" that will be "far worse than COVID".
Almost certainly. The SolarWinds debacle will cause massive pain across the world in government and private industry. I wonder if Russia is really behind it
State actors take steps to appear as other state actors. Honestly, at this point no one knows except the party behind it. The Democrats will blame Russia as will their media, most smart people will blame China as they are by far the most active and the most brazen.
It's not just Democrats tho, it's Information Security people. This didn't impact only government, it also affects corporations. Oh, and foreign governments were also impacted. It could definitely be China, but just as easily they could have been hit by it, too.
You are right that people are still figuring it out and are not yet certain of the scope or the actor
If you ever wonder why Hillary and the "gang of 8" were taking so many trips to our 5-eyes "allies", the answer is because they apparently don't log visitors in those shitholes, unlike us, and people with sec clearances can get access without a trail.
That's the entire purpose of the 5 eyes network. And you simply ask one of our "allies" to spy on your citizens. That way you didn't do it, but you still get access to the data.
You not American? Yes, usually. Just like the US uses those other countries to spy on people they can't legally then "accidentally" come across that information.
It appears there are three basic networks used by us military and DoD. Normal, Secret, and Top Secret. They are shutting down the Secret network. Seems like a big deal.
sipr is used for, usually in my experience, anything Secret and above. We had specific fax machines, computers, and phones that were all on separate secure lines that limited people could use or access. They were completely disconnected from the standard routing infrastructure and the cables certainly within our hangars were specifically and boldly identifiable.
Yesterday's Wikileaks dump probably is. Though Assange never dumped his insurance/ deadman switch files, I'd speculate it was likely a good will gesture related to an impending pardon.
I just quickly scanned it but given and compared to the happenings of our present day nothing to compelling. Mostly older not so ground shaking stuff from 2005 to 2009
Identify something new. I didn't see anything but my computer that I had the last dumb stored on is down so I can't do a compare. I visually looked and saw pretty much nothing of note new.
Yeah.. they might well be removing SolarWinds SNMP strings because of the hack, It affects anything running SNMP including routers, switches, servers.. you name it SolarWinds moniros ALL devices on a network. They are not going to "wait till the weekend" if their network routers and switches need to be reconfigured because they're at risk! Might be something else but I manage networks and know how much a disaster this hack is for network engineers.
Is read only by default yes. But can be write enabled. this isnt just about SNMP btw.. SolarWinds also audits network devices and computers for software licensing therefore needs elevated permissions to scan hard drives and registry. If those access credentials are farmed you have a world of shit to deal with and resolve.
Thanks for spelling it out for the less initiated and was what I meant by “maintenance”. Not spelling it out was my bad. Obviously they have a breach and worked to rectify in an emergency window while downing SW like every other corporation across the country. The amount of breaking bullshit over normal practice to get people coming out of there seats was my meaning.
Definitely not true. This isn't even possible. It's a different infrastructure. Even defense contractor IT didn't get to work from home if they work on sensitive projects. They still had to go into the office. I know a lot of them. No work from home for coof.
Part of me is thinking that the rest of the net is going to get shut down. How can they expose everything and correct everything while there is still a connection going and likely holes all over the place. I understand the 10-day thing maybe a larp but something like this is she thinking that maybe it's not
Shutting down the internet would send people crazy across the board, making them uncontrollable. Not to mention the unthinkable economic damage, and the precedent. I don't think it's realistic for more than a day, and that would already be a huge deal
Economic damage covertly targeted at small retail businesses
Everything that directly or incidentally benefits from online has gone ballistic. The ccp virus was the perfect excuse to wipe out a fragmented unorganized segment of the economy and acquire all their mass of revenue
The internet is required to keep the gravy train going, not least for indoctrination and brainwashing. It's the main pillar keeping the whole circus act up. Shutting it down could have unpredictable consequences
If they do it, you know they're ultra desperate that's for sure
I'm not too worried about it so long as the power grid doesn't go but I'd be perfectly happy if the internet got shut down for Christmas so that we can go through and fix everything and find every hole in leak and get rid of the communists and all the bad actors for good
I don't think they will. Think about it from a hospital perspective. Many major health care software vendors host the EMR for hospitals now instead of the hospital doing it and incurring that cost. The loss of internet would a major, and I mean MAJOR health risk for any patients that need to be seen
Coordinating is one thing... but I think it would be to shut down all nefarious internet activity from bad actors/CCP. Take it down, fix/reinforce your systems, then let it back up all good to go. If anyone blames Trump, fuck em, wasn't his fault all this has been allowed to happen. Like getting mad at the dentist because your teeth are rotting from meth.
DoD network = rfc3330 7.0.0.0/8 space and does not route on public routers same as rfc1918 space. That being said they most likely have gateway services in/out and this is where SolarWinds would be used. Some ISPs even use 7.0.0.0/8 space as private VRF/MPLS space as it’s that separates out of the rest of the public internet. Ok - just FYI from an old tier one network engineer.
All SIPRNET network works on electronic encryption that is updated periodicaly and allows SECRET classified info. If you don't update you lose connectivity. This is a HUGE deal, how is DOD communicating with classified info? I have never seen SIPRNET shut down, thats GOVERNMENT wide. All government with classified access uses SIPRNET. IF THIS IS TRUE THEN SOMETHING CONUS IS HAPPENING.
Just read whole article- if they shut it down for a couple hours then they may have updated the encryption, when they update encryption its pushed out to all, down to the lowest levels and at a planned time all assets updated using digital encryption device that takes a minute or two.
It's probably not to dissimilar to what we did when we ever thought our frequency hopping codes might have been compromised in the aviation world. We would have new code tapes brought all over by armed military couriers and we would have to destroy the old codes and then reprogram every single jet.
It's possible they found that the original patterns, which are similar to how we would work with codes on tapes essentially, and are distributing new seed information for all systems. Plus it allows termination of all sessions and forced password resets while purging suspect users.
I was in the air force and the only reason I was sidearm qualified since I was in a more technical maintenance role was because I was on the list of people that could fly with our pallets that had our safes with classified content onboard and they weren't supposed to be left unattended. Was pretty lame. Nobody really enjoys flying on those damn planes.
Research dispersive which is used by the nsa and other gov agencies. Basically multiple encrypted tunnels over multiple wand so a mitm can’t work unless end devices are compromised where they recombine the streams. They also have tech that does the same thing over optical networks (layer1) from a defunct company they got access to during a patent query. For you young pedes out there looking at IT, focus on security and IT forensics.
THE DEMS just wanted to find out what out president is doing since he has blocked all the swamp creatures out of the classified stuff, so they hacked a back door that they knew was there for just this purpose.
Or did they hack themselves to close off access to the Deepstate ?? I mean if the US military was planning something I don't know ( Surprise Martial law) then closing off access to civilian organizations would be the smart thing to do.
siprnet is supposed to be fully disconnected from the main internet. Why the hell would they do that unless someone patched it into the regular internet infrastructure or they have identified democrats and chinks downloading off of it?
Everything on the internet is “internet protocol” (it’s the IP in IP address. And every home had at least 1 router. It’s not a secret - we’re talking about it right now. I know less now than I did before.
This global network of routers is disconnected from the live Internet we use. There is no connection between the two. It's an internet for U.S., Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, and New Zealand to communicate, send data, etc. without the major security risks of sending them through live networks. They shut down this network most likely due to Solarwinds. The data going through these routers is at high risk, and they have to dig through routers and switches all across the network to weed out vulnerabilities. It's a total trainwreck, and right now there is most likely an army of engineers working on this.
It is possible for sure, but the point of the system is to be separate from the actual www. I assume they have net bots that attempt connections using www DNS lookups, and the moment one of those ends up working they know the exact router that is connected to the www, and that the network is compromised.
Totally. I used it in my military life. It's supposed to be separate. I worked in hangars. The network lines for it were clearly marked. It's totally possible someone spliced in or some commie simp was manually transferring data. All it takes is one entry point.
SIPRNET shutdown IS a big fucking deal!

Canadian here too, can confirm Trudeau's Canada is compromised. But many of its citizens are not.
Not sure Canada will be any of a better place under Trudeau than America will be if Biden gets in. But I'm pretty sure there will be a civil war of sorts and we'll carve out our own free land (with patriotic Canadians and Americans), and will have Trump as Pres. All of course if anything goes sidewards from the current plan.
If I could move to Texas right now legally and escape this shit hole Peel Region, I'd be gone in a fucking heart beat.
You know... Alaska could use a a few states to connect it to Idaho and Montana. Just saying.
For sure. In fact, BC was thinking of joining the Union back in 1860's, but then Canada (the East at the time) promised us a transcontinental railroad so we would join them.
I wonder what the founders of our country would say now if they saw how f*cked we're getting.
I'll keep my eye on you..
Build the other wall. Sorry fren, you are behind enemy lines. Leave now.
They never were but that’s an argument for another day.
None of them are trustworthy they all participated in the Russia Hoax
Shit is about to get real
Huh.
That's massive, holy shit. It has to do with the SolarWinds shit, right?
Presumably we are unraveling the Gordian Knot and learning the extent of CCP infiltration.
Or they used passwords like Solarwind123

Globalist scumbag Klaus Schwab from the World Economic Forum has been telegraphing this for 6 months now. He literally told us this was going to happen: A "Cyberpandemic" that will be "far worse than COVID".
"DARK WINTER".
Please, PLEASE watch this: https://odysee.com/@iceagefarmer:42/the-cyberpandemic-has-begun-solarwinds:3
We've had a lot of warning and I confess I still don't have a HAM radio
Almost certainly. The SolarWinds debacle will cause massive pain across the world in government and private industry. I wonder if Russia is really behind it
That's a weird way to spell China.
Take it for what it's worth, but most people in the know think it's a Russia-linked entity. They could be wrong and it could be China, of course
Its china
Trump leans into mic China!
State actors take steps to appear as other state actors. Honestly, at this point no one knows except the party behind it. The Democrats will blame Russia as will their media, most smart people will blame China as they are by far the most active and the most brazen.
It's not just Democrats tho, it's Information Security people. This didn't impact only government, it also affects corporations. Oh, and foreign governments were also impacted. It could definitely be China, but just as easily they could have been hit by it, too.
You are right that people are still figuring it out and are not yet certain of the scope or the actor
It could be, I was half joking when I made that comment.
Oh, you are a democrat. That's why you sound dumb.
Someone posted on here that they had a backdoor. Makes me think China, but you'd have to imagine it's one of China or Russia.
The pain was probably inflicted a long time ago - we're just now discovering the wound.
It could have been present for months, monitoring everything and learning how antiviral programs work. could just be the first wave
The backdoor was present for months. And SolarWinds was signing updates to the infected plugin, meaning it was an inside job or they were infiltrated.
Fun fact...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_wind
GCCS still up?
GCCS-MC is never up
Kek!!!
Lol
Sounds like the IP feed is down- only RF inputs!
Funny enough Japan was asking if it could join the “Five Eyes” recently
Some of those Eyes were providing Multiple Views.
If you ever wonder why Hillary and the "gang of 8" were taking so many trips to our 5-eyes "allies", the answer is because they apparently don't log visitors in those shitholes, unlike us, and people with sec clearances can get access without a trail.
So wait, American politicians can just go to our allies to look at our intel without a paper trail?
That's the entire purpose of the 5 eyes network. And you simply ask one of our "allies" to spy on your citizens. That way you didn't do it, but you still get access to the data.
You not American? Yes, usually. Just like the US uses those other countries to spy on people they can't legally then "accidentally" come across that information.
Explain it for the layman, please.
It’s an internet, but secret-level classified, used by all DOD
they got memes tho?
Asking the real questions
Your username is quite a visual.
They developed a stealth helicopter in complete secrecy so I'm sure there are black ops memes we know nothing about.
All the memes on SIPR are so dank they had to be classified. I'd have to kill you if I showed you though.
It appears there are three basic networks used by us military and DoD. Normal, Secret, and Top Secret. They are shutting down the Secret network. Seems like a big deal.
Tweak: NIPR is unclass, TS is generally routed via proprietary nets.
Incorrect- SIPR is Secure Internet Protocol Routing- is for Secret. It is not for TS.
Nipr is normal net
Secret documents are transmitted over SIPRN. Top Secret/SCI are transmitted over JWICS.
After this thread, I think we're all on a "list" out there and it's not just AOC's.
sipr is used for, usually in my experience, anything Secret and above. We had specific fax machines, computers, and phones that were all on separate secure lines that limited people could use or access. They were completely disconnected from the standard routing infrastructure and the cables certainly within our hangars were specifically and boldly identifiable.
Secret and below. *ftfy
What I thought as well.
Agreed. Never heard of this before. Sounds fancy...
Common language in NOVA.
Hell, they name roads in NOVA after defense networks, GSA schedules, and acronyms. /s
Fuck nova, just saying
Correct.
Yes.
We could tell you but then we'd have to kill you.
What if I killed you first?
Then you'd NEVER know.
What if you DON'T tell me? Would you still have to kill me at that point or am I free to go.
Really depends on if we made eye contact
shifts eyes
Have you talked to anybody else?
Checkmate
Go to your front door now!
Then you wouldn’t know, would you?
It's like CNN for the Pentagon. You no see!
Kind of wondering if any of this is related to Assange also
Yesterday's Wikileaks dump probably is. Though Assange never dumped his insurance/ deadman switch files, I'd speculate it was likely a good will gesture related to an impending pardon.
Was there anything noteworthy in the new dump?
I just quickly scanned it but given and compared to the happenings of our present day nothing to compelling. Mostly older not so ground shaking stuff from 2005 to 2009
I just want to see the big Mike dick pic. At least 11 more skittles then hunter

By FAR the biggest fucking news of the day. People should be executed over this.
Well THIS may be something
Yeah.. they might well be removing SolarWinds SNMP strings because of the hack, It affects anything running SNMP including routers, switches, servers.. you name it SolarWinds moniros ALL devices on a network.

Thanks for the link not much to see besides maintenance- the Twitter propaganda is getting old about to start ignoring it here.
“Hey guys, fishy shit is going on and we’ve got to shut it down. Too bad there’s no explanation we can give.”
“What if we said it was maintenance?”
“This is a fucking genius over here, even the stupidest mother fuckers will believe that! Maintenance. Holy shit. Fucking Einstein!”
Hey sunshine!
“Hey Sunshine!”
You feeling the heat from those Solar Winds?
It's officially cyber war footing then.
Happening level.
IT'S
That’s what I was thinking
Most plausible imo
He can declassify without it. He can literally just send people a few blocks over to manually transfer information.
They probably shut down SIPR because of government folks being allowed to access from home during the pandemic. Yeah, that’s a true story.
I was told it was through a government furnished VDI thin client
Definitely not true. This isn't even possible. It's a different infrastructure. Even defense contractor IT didn't get to work from home if they work on sensitive projects. They still had to go into the office. I know a lot of them. No work from home for coof.
Yeah, I think I fell for LARP. My apologies. I will see my self out.
It's okay, hard to tell these days. You llearned some truth out of it, so it's not a loss!
Can confirm

I think there will be a short internet shutdown for a few days[up to 10?] when its go time to prevent enemies from coordinating.
Coordinating is one thing... but I think it would be to shut down all nefarious internet activity from bad actors/CCP. Take it down, fix/reinforce your systems, then let it back up all good to go. If anyone blames Trump, fuck em, wasn't his fault all this has been allowed to happen. Like getting mad at the dentist because your teeth are rotting from meth.
If the top secret level was shut down, would we even know it? Since its all top secret and stuff?
No
No since no normal internet traffic passes through the same infrastructure.
Everyday that passes, the Q stuff seems to be more and more likely
Ok qtard
And now Newt works at the pentagon? Wtf is going on?

Yea and newt no is working at the pentagon!! I shit you not.
Interesting, not sure if good or bad. Big deal either way
Secret level? You mean, with cows or 1ups?
SIPR is ancient, using JWICS now and can transmit all SIPRNET traffic. Only limitation is the need for a SCIF.
Kek
This is to cut our domestic enemies on the inside off from info. Those feeding Brennan, Jarrett etc. Hell, they probably still have access.
THE DEMS just wanted to find out what out president is doing since he has blocked all the swamp creatures out of the classified stuff, so they hacked a back door that they knew was there for just this purpose.
Why would we find out about a super top secret shut down? Why would this leak to this site?
Nothing to see here...just another Q proof
... and you wonder why these kids know nothing!
They still trying to blame Russia! for this?
A buddy from my S2 shop showed me what the SIPRNET backbone is: Google
Hey thebias_news, if you are quoting Just The News, why not give them a link?
Thanks for this post. This feels big.
Or did they hack themselves to close off access to the Deepstate ?? I mean if the US military was planning something I don't know ( Surprise Martial law) then closing off access to civilian organizations would be the smart thing to do.
Wow, things are moving quickly.
Shit
lawlz - unverified account claims SIPRNet is down, doesn't mention NIPRNet at all...
Okay boyo, sure, if you say so.
If there is a CHIPRNet, I swear I am going to lose it!
We are under a cyberattack, ladies and gentlemen.
No compromises my ass.
siprnet is supposed to be fully disconnected from the main internet. Why the hell would they do that unless someone patched it into the regular internet infrastructure or they have identified democrats and chinks downloading off of it?
Now the CIA can’t see them?
SHIT! Will this affect my playing Cyberpunk!? ; )
Giant asteroid incoming.
Now that is interesting. Something is definitely about to happen.
Everything on the internet is “internet protocol” (it’s the IP in IP address. And every home had at least 1 router. It’s not a secret - we’re talking about it right now. I know less now than I did before.
This global network of routers is disconnected from the live Internet we use. There is no connection between the two.

The data going through these routers is at high risk, and they have to dig through routers and switches all across the network to weed out vulnerabilities. It's a total trainwreck, and right now there is most likely an army of engineers working on this.
It's possible there was by someone committing espionage that triggered this.
It is possible for sure, but the point of the system is to be separate from the actual www. I assume they have net bots that attempt connections using www DNS lookups, and the moment one of those ends up working they know the exact router that is connected to the www, and that the network is compromised.
Totally. I used it in my military life. It's supposed to be separate. I worked in hangars. The network lines for it were clearly marked. It's totally possible someone spliced in or some commie simp was manually transferring data. All it takes is one entry point.
