[Ads-l] exfiltrate = infiltrate and take

[Benjamin Barrett]

Both the Oxford Dictionary site and Wiktionary offer pretty much the 
same definition for exfiltrate:

https://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/american_english/exfiltrate
Withdraw (troops or spies) surreptitiously, especially from a dangerous 
position.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/exfiltrate
(military) To withdraw troops surreptitiously from a dangerous position

In the news, a different meaning is being used:
"Officials say deeply personal information in hackers' hands"
