HYSTORY
The Secret Intelligence Service
(SIS)history has attracted a great deal of
attention over the years.

The history of British intelligence
organizations ,
engaged in foreign
intelligence collection and the interception
of mail and messages, goes back at least to
the second half of the 15th Century.
Thomas Cromwell ran secret agents in
Europe on behalf of Henry VIII. Sir Francis
Walsingham developed expertise in secret
interception, as well as maintaining a
network of fifty secret agents abroad while

Previous headquarters have been Century
House, 100 Westminster Bridge Road,
Lambeth(196695); and 54, Broadway, off
Victoria Street, London(192466). (Although SIS
operated from Broadway, it was actually based
at St James's Street and also made considerable
use of the adjoiningSt. Ermins Hotel).The
building was designed by SirTerry Ferell and
built byJohn Laing. At the same time MI5 was
seeking alternative accommodation and colocation of the two services was studied

Controversial history
SIS OR MI6?
Why MI6?
'MI6' has become an almost interchangeable title
for SIS, at least in the minds of those outside the
Service. The origins of the use of this other title are
to be found in the late 1930s when it was adopted
as a flag of convenience for SIS. It was used
extensively during the Second World War,
especially if an organizational link needed to
THE CHIEF
SIS is headed by Sir John Sawers,
known as the Chief of SIS or 'C' (after
the first Chief,Mansfield Cumming
who signed himself 'C'). Sir John
took up his post on the 1st

GCHQ
GCHQ is one of the three
UK Intelligence Agencies
and forms a crucial part of
the UKs National
Intelligence and Security
machinery.
TheNational Security
Strategysets out the
challenges of a changing
and uncertain world and
places cyber attack in the
top tier of risks, alongside
international terrorism, a
major industrial accident or
natural disaster, and
international military crisis
MI5
TheSecurity Service, commonly
known asMI5(Military
Intelligence, Section 5),is
theUnited
Kingdom'sinternalcounterintelligenceand security agency.
The Deputy DG is responsible for
the operational activity of the
service, being responsible for four
branches; international counterterrorism, National Security
Advice Centre (counter
proliferation and counter
espionage), Irish and domestic
counter-terrorism and technical
and surveillance operations.
CONCLUSION
My opinion is that Secret Intelligence Service is
working for people without asking anything in return.
Its true that people do not have and will not have
access to what is happening in the middle of SIS, but
it is right. We are not able to judge them, because they
work to ensure the safety of people without even
advertise and thats all that matters. Agents lifestyle
is different and separate from our. Sometimes it means
a lot of paperwork, danger, regrets, etc. So, they have
played and will play an important role in human history.
