SPECIAL REPORT: Sarah Palin's email problems exposed, separating fact from fiction

Palm Bay, FL -- ZATZ Publishing, in association with IT Examiner.com, today announced the publication of our latest Special Report, Separating fact from fiction: Sarah Palin's email problems exposed.

According to the report, which features an interview with David Gewirtz, ZATZ Editor-in-Chief and author of Where Have All The Emails Gone?, Sarah Palin's Yahoo email troubles mirror email security, privacy, and identity theft concerns we all face.

While there has not yet been any official statement from Palin's team that her email was actually hacked, David reports that a forensic investigation should examine a series of specific issues: how it happened; whether it could have happened; whether there was any wrongdoing; and, what the truth really is about the previous Alaskan requests for her email records?

The Palin email hacking incident has been at the top of the news through a confluence of events: the extraordinary attention Governor Palin has been getting as the surprise Vice Presidential nominee of the Republican party, an investigation into missing email messages that might shed light on her alleged wrongdoing in the firing of the Alaskan Public Safety Commissioner, and the break-in and subsequent publication of what is claimed to be the contents of her Yahoo email account.

The 1,448 word Special Report explores the following issues:

  • Five specific ways Governor Palin's Yahoo email account may have been compromised.

  • How your email accounts might also be hacked in exactly the same way Palin's were reported to be, and what you can do to protect yourself.

  • What this hacking incident might mean for the various Alaskan state investigations into Governor Palin's possible participation in "Troopergate".

  • How questions of email archiving by Governor Palin might relate to David's study of the email archiving problems at the White House and how the severity of the issue might differ considerably.

This story has reinforced once again just how important David's recommendations in Where Have All The Emails Gone? are. Those six steps may be the only path that will prevent the problems we seem to be constantly discovering from happening with future administrations -- and even other governments throughout the world.
