WikiLeaks

In light of the recent leaks, there have been a number of precautions taken to ensure future documents aren’t taken from the military’s database and published.

These include a monitoring system to detect when large amounts of documents are taken as well as additional restrictions on personnel’s ability to store information on thumb-drives or disks.

As far as specific content in the leaked cables, the Pentagon is withholding comment.
