Ken McCallum, who led counter terrorism investigations during London 2012 Olympics, becomes new MI5 boss
Originally from Glasgow, Mr McCallum spent his first years at MI5 focusing on Northern Ireland-related terrorism, and later specialised in countering Islamist extremist terrorism.
Sir Andrew Parker said he is"the right person to take MI5 forward" as the country"deals with the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic". Running MI5 is a challenging job at any time - with the responsibility of working out which threats to prioritise and how to avoid being outpaced by technology. But McCallum will also have to wrestle with new issues.
