Kaspersky Labs: Russian antivirus firm leaving the US after ban

Kaspersky Labs has announced its exit from the U.S. market due to a ban on its software by the Biden administration, which cited security risks related to the company's ties to Moscow. The company plans to gradually cease U.S. operations starting July 20, 2024, and has already stopped sales on its U.S. website. The Commerce Department's ruling prohibits Kaspersky from selling its software or providing updates in the U.S., leveraging powers established during the Trump administration to restrict transactions with foreign adversaries. The restrictions will take effect on September 29, and Kaspersky intends to explore legal options to contest the ban.
