How Snowden Got Access
Former NSA analyst Edward Snowden accessed some classified documents using a password he got from a co-worker.

Snowden, who has leaked thousands of secret documents to the media, has denied using someone else's credentials.

That let Snowden get his password, which in turn led to the treasure trove of documents Snowden took and leaked to the media.
