On June 13, the European Union (EU) Parliament passed a resolution characterizing Kaspersky as “confirmed as malicious.” While the resolution is not a ban or legally binding, it does recommend banning the company from information technology used throughout the EU. The vote signals the newest wave of challenges to the company from nations. In September 2017, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued a Binding Operational Directive ordering all federal government departments and agencies to discontinue use and remove from their information systems all products and services provided by Kaspersky due to concerns about possible collusion between the company and the Russian government. Kaspersky products have also been banned from sensitive systems in the U.K. and are being phased out of Dutch systems. CyberScoop.
