According to the Oxford English Dictionary: "In Imperial Russia: a secret police department set up in 1881 (after the assassination of Tsar Alexander II) to maintain state security and suppress revolutionary activities, and abolished after the February Revolution in 1917 (now hist.). Also (in later and extended use): the security services of the Soviet Union or its successors."
