Russia warns Pentagon about the Consequences if they Kaspersky

[ispx]

i beg to differ, i do not think X is gonna nuke Y just because Y hacked X's servers.

& let's get back on topic, kaspersky.

i think this is as simple as @Umbra said it in post #5.

it is a matter of introspection. how on earth did kaspersky make it to the machines in the pentagon?

i fact, after some research , the DoD don't use kaspersky; but the U.S. Department of Homeland Security warned gov agencies not to use it.

About a month ago, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla) asked the chiefs of the NSA, CIA, FBI and several other intelligence agencies during a hearing whether they would be comfortable using Kaspersky products, but each said ‘no’. It is likely that their response was due to Kaspersky’s history and alleged ties with the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB).

However some US agencies use KIS.

Public contracting records show Kaspersky began getting US government contracts to protect online systems at the National Institutes of Health in 2008, and by 2014, the company’s products were being used by the Department of Justice, the Treasury Department, and several offices within the State Department, including some US embassies. According to the Federal Procurement database, Kaspersky’s most recent contract was signed with the Consumer Product Safety Commission in June 2016.
