Kinda late I guess? These things should have never been allowed in the first place lol. Also, there’s soo many more Russian/Chinese apps that still need to be banned, but it’s the government, it will obviously take them another 20 years to do that
20 years and probably 50M$ to do as well
Why the fuck anyone can install any third party software on a government device in any country is beyond me
I thought Kaspersky was one of the good guys?
I haven’t trusted Kaspersky for a long time, ever since I read this interview.
If you had the power to change up to three things in the world today that are related to IT security, what would they be?
Internet design–that’s enough.
That’s it? What’s wrong with the design of the Internet?
There’s anonymity. Everyone should and must have an identification, or Internet passport. The Internet was designed not for public use, but for American scientists and the U.S. military. That was just a limited group of people–hundreds, or maybe thousands. Then it was introduced to the public and it was wrong…to introduce it in the same way.
I’d like to change the design of the Internet by introducing regulation–Internet passports, Internet police and international agreement–about following Internet standards. And if some countries don’t agree with or don’t pay attention to the agreement, just cut them off.
Wow, fuck whoever said that. Fuck them with a wiffle ball bat.
So what’s a better option in your opinion.
Not doing anything he suggested.
For an antivirus? I’d say just defender & don’t open sketchy .exe files for Windows. Otherwise, Linux and don’t really worry about it. Keep regular backups either way and you can’t go too far wrong.
For the design of the internet, I’d say the opposite of what Kaspersky wants lol
Not OP, but for Enterprise Carbon Black. For personal home use, Windows Defender if you’re tech savvy, ESET NOD32 if you’re risk adverse or not careful.
Crowdstrike Falcon is also quite solid for enterprise use.
I don’t agree with their position but I’m not seeing any bad intentions there.
"There’s no evidence that they have any back-doors in their software or any ties to the Russian mafia or state… but there is still a concern that you can’t operate in Russia without being controlled by the ruling party"source the CEO was also in the military and was a KGB member, i can see why the concerns
No unclassified evidence you mean.
Not in many years.
canada do you have to do everything america does?
No. That’s why we have healthcare, legalized weed, decriminalized drugs, and have almost zero shootings.
