Tangential question I don't think anyone here can answer: what did the Times mean by 'put her intelligence background to work'?

Does that mean her training suggested a possible thing she should check? Or does it mean she somehow used her position or contacts within the intelligence community to get information which would not otherwise be provided?

I've never asked my bank for this type of information; I've no idea whether or not a bank would provide it (although it seems a reasonable request)... But if she used her official position to get information she would not otherwise be provided, that's a pretty clear ethics violation.

I'm not throwing stones here;I just wish the Times quote was clearer.
