MI6, the intelligence agency for overseas operations, is looking to recruit IT and technology experts to gather data 
and spy on computers in other countries.

A job ad appeared in Thursday's Times newspaper as part of the organization's latest public-recruitment drive.

"It's about keeping up with what the other sides are doing and making it better so they can't break into our 
[systems]," a spokesman for MI6, otherwise known as the Secret Intelligence Service, told Silicon.com. "This is the 
first in a series of ads that will appear."

MI6 said security professionals and people with "interception qualifications" are highly sought-after.
