"There weren't many computer specialist in Soviet Union at that time."

No,  we had many thousands of good computer specialists in the Soviet Union
in 1980s.. We had scientific institutes specifically on the applications of
computers and computational methods and specialized departments in any major
University including Moscow University.

However, any scientist who suppose to work  for the KGB on sensitive
subjects was very carefully selected (one can find how that was done in
practice in a book "Biological espionage" by Kouzminov).
