Kaspersky: nyet in appealing against the US government

Η he will not have the opportunity to attend court against the American s after a Washington DC Court of Appeals rejected the company's request.

On Friday, the Board of Appeals upheld a previous district court ruling that Kaspersky could not sue the US government to overturn decision of 2017 which prevents US government agencies from using the company's.

The decision [PDF] is reported to terto definitively kill Kaspersky's hope of lifting the ban on its products.

The three-judge panel agreed with the lower court ruling that Congress has the right to block the purchase of software from a specific vendor if there are security concerns.

Judges continue to reject Kaspersky's request and describe the company's products as a security risk, noting the company's close relationship with the Russian government, which is known to actively attack US networks and obtain top-secret information.

And while the company accurately points out that many cyber companies operate in Russia, we conclude that Congress, based on previous evidence, could reasonably prove that Kaspersky's ties to the Russian government differ to some degree. kind of from these other companies.

Ο Kaspersky, εν τω μεταξύ, δήλωσε απογοητευμένος με την απόφαση και ότι στην εταιρεία του υπάρχουν "ακόμα καλά παιδιά που αγωνίζονται στον κυβερνοχώρο σε όλο τον κόσμο."

"Η απόφαση του DC Circuit Court είναι απογοητευτική, αλλά τα γεγονότα του περασμένου έτους που κορυφώθηκαν σε αυτήν την απόφαση ήταν σχεδόν αναμενόμενα και όχι μόνο από την εταιρεία μας, αλλά και από τη βιομηχανία του κυβερνοχώρου εν γένει", writes the CEO by Eugene Kaspersky.

"Είμαστε βέβαιοι ότι τα ζητήματα που εμπλέκονται στην επίλυση των διαφορών μας ξεπερνούν τις τεχνικές πτυχές, και συμπεριλαμβάνουν προβλήματα του πραγματικού : προστατευτισμός και βαλκανισμός σε έναν κόσμο υποτιμημένης αντιπαλότητας στον κυβερνοχώρο με εξαιρετικά περίπλοκες διαδικτυακές απειλές."
