Diebold has claimed that the posting the documents-which were stolen by a

Slater said the University has disabled online access to the documents.
They were not stolen by a hacker.
They were found on January 23, 2003 by Beverly Harris during a google
search of global election systems web site. The last choice was FTP. She
clicked and the entire FTP part of the web site was open and not password
protected. harris explains in great detail exactly what happened in
chapter seven of her book.
