CIA Classification Systems, Gmail and HCS 404 Usage
Former CIA officer Amaryllis Kennedy describes the internal administrative processes of the agency, claiming that staff use a Google-provided email client similar to Gmail. She alleges that officers frequently use the "HCS 404" (Human Compartmented Sensitive) classification drop-down for mundane communications to ensure they are never subject to public declassification.
