To support what I theorize, the intro song and a song dedicated to Cinder made by Casey& Jeff Williams who make all of RWBY’s songs states: "Did the things you thought you should/ All the things they said were good/… Born an angel, heaven sent/ Falls from grace are never elegant/… I’m not your sacrifire/… Blind and keep the people on their knees/… Truth will rise/ Revealed by mirrored eyes/ What if all the plans you made/ were not the price they paid/ Even with the lives you stole/ Still no closer to your…goal."

"Were we born to fight and die/ Sacrificed for one huge lie/ Are we heroes keeping peace/ Or are we weapons/ Pointed at the enemy/ So someone else can claim victory/

( if you haven’t listened to any of the songs, well do b/c they give much more info than even the show itself :P)


 * Since not much is known, this is all in theory* She was a phenomenal huntress.  “born an angel, heaven sent”   From being such an extraordinaire, she talks with higher-ups and learns something, a dark dire secret. "Blind and keep the people on their knees".  From this point she takes matters into her own hands, is betrayed by such higher-ups and her own friends. "Falls from grace are never elegant"

During her vanish, she makes a plan. A plan to take down the higher-ups, but needs a lot of manpower to do this. Thus requires the White Fang, Roman, the dust and the virus she implemented into the system to take power from her enemies from the paladins and knights (which I might add that Qrow said the Queen,(Cinder) has pawns (the virus) and made it into a Queen by adding it into corrupt the soldiers). Doing all this to quite possible end whatever secret and its foundation. "Truth will rise/ Revealed by mirrored eyes"

I support this theory/compilation of theories made in this youtube.

To give a little more proof to this plan, Cinder states in Extracurricular ” It’s not about overpowering an enemy. It’s about taking away what power they have. And we will, in time. “

Also, I would like to point my hand to Beacon Academy, more importantly, Professor Ozpin. What if he told her? What if he is the holds the secret and hates the burden of it?

This makes sense from The Shining Beacon episode where Ozpin sounds/looks like he doesn’t want to or say anything stating:

"I’ll…keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search of knowledge—to hone your craft and acquire new skills—and when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose—direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."

This also can be accounted when he tells Ruby in The Badge and Burden pt. 2 that: “I’ve made more mistakes than any man, woman, and child on this planet.”

He doesn’t like the secret he is withheld to keep,("You’ve been burdened with a daunting responsibility Ruby, I advise you take some time to think about how you will uphold it." Sounds like he’s talking from experience.) but cares for the students: “…And they will be. But right now they’re still children, so why not let them play the part? After all, it isn’t a role they’ll have forever.” “I hope they never have to.”

NOW HERE’S THE REAL QUESTION…WHAT IS THE SECRET??
