US bans Kaspersky software over Russian security concerns.
The U.S. government has announced a ban on Kaspersky antivirus software sales in the country, citing concerns over national security and privacy risks associated with the company’s Russian ownership. Effective July 20, Kaspersky will be prohibited from selling to U.S. consumers and businesses, with software updates for existing users ending by September 29. U.S. officials encourage affected users to switch to alternative providers immediately. Kaspersky plans to challenge the decision, asserting its contributions to U.S. cybersecurity and the legality of current user installations.
