If you happened to hear mention of an antivirus software named Kaspersky and the US Federal Government banning it from government computers, it’s because Kaspersky is made in Russia. While the software’s origin doesn’t immediately mean it’s compromised, the US Government feels that the likelihood is too high to take the risk.
What does that mean for your computers? As with any computer, there’s always the >possibility< of your system being compromised. The >probability< is much, much lower however. Having Kaspersky on your system is better than not having any antivirus software. The decision point is whether to have Russian-made software on your computer or software designed somewhere else. Any software has the >possibility< of containing unwanted capabilities. Our job is to reduce the >probability< of compromise.
