There is no 'cyber defense' that will protect someone from the stupidity of responding to a phishing scam.

Thousands of little old ladies do it every day; they even send money to the phishers.

The problem here was that neither Podesta or the DNC gurus were smarter or less gullible than those little old ladies!

Well, the problem that Podesta and the two heads of the DNC sent Podesta e-mails about Bernie and the CNN questions and was arrogant and stupid.

"Donna Brazile to Democrats: ‘We failed you’ "

"Brazile came under fire from another set of stolen emails, including two she'd sent to Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, John Podesta, informing him that CNN — where she was a political analyst — had shared possible primary debate and forum questions with her. That ended her time at CNN."
