Russian Hackers Access DNC Computers COZY BEAR and FANCY BEAR sound like toys made for American children. In fact, they're the nicknames of two Russian cyber-spy organizations that hacked the Democratic National Committee — including its files on Donald Trump. During the Nixon years, Republican spies had to break into the Watergate Hotel to find out what the Democrats were doing.

Dmitri Alperovich is co-founder and CTO.
