I had a high level security clearance back in my day. I still remember some of my security briefings.

All I remember being told was--screw up and lose your job, maybe end up in jail. <g>

the more independent verifications of classified information given to bad guys gives them more confidence to act on it and expend less resources to verify it.

I take your point. I'm sure this breach didn't help any. I just suspect that those who claim something critical was spilled are hyping it for reasons of their own.
