Daily Mail: MI5 has warned large corporations that foreign spy agencies may be secretly recruiting their IT workers in the hope of gathering sensitive information for use in cyber attacks, it has been claimed.
The security service is said to have conducted talks with senior figures at a number of leading British businesses in recent months, with the infiltration of IT departments understood to be a top priority.
Even the most junior IT worker could compromise vital computer systems by uploading malicious software, and could also gain access to the kind of sensitive information which may prove useful to hostile nations such as Russia, China or Iran.
