BIS (British Intelligence Services)

The British Intelligence Services, primarily represented by MI5 (Security Service) and MI6 (Secret Intelligence Service), are government agencies responsible for national security. MI5 focuses on domestic counterintelligence and protecting the UK from threats like terrorism and espionage within the country. MI6 handles overseas intelligence, gathering information abroad to support national interests and security. Together, these agencies operate clandestinely, collecting and analyzing intelligence to prevent threats, assist policymakers, and ensure the safety of the UK and its citizens. They work closely with allies and adhere to legal and ethical standards to maintain national security.
