![]() ![]() Such threats are usually very sophisticated and may consist of multiple components – not necessary malicious at first glance. We focus on high-profile cyberthreats that have the potential to impact many users. ![]() And the data’s risk is the only feature the heuristics care about. These heuristics are designed in a way so that they focus only on a particular type of data – one that has characteristics potentially dangerous to computer health. ![]() Let me elaborate a bit more on what we do and what we don’t when protecting our users from cyberattacks:Įvery day, we develop new heuristics and advanced detection mechanisms that flag suspected malware and send it to machine-learning-powered back-end for automatic analysis. It works like an X-ray: the security solution can see almost everything in order to identify problems, but it cannot attribute what it sees to a particular user. While protecting our customers, we do – as any other cybersecurity vendors – check the health of a computer. We make no apologies for being aggressive in the battle against malware and cybercriminals – you shouldn’t accept any less. This is the reason why we consistently get top ratings in independent, third-party malware detection tests. We absolutely and aggressively detect and clean malware infections no matter the source, and have been proudly doing so for 20 years. However, I couldn’t agree more with the second claim about being aggressive in our hunt for malware. I can hardly comment on it besides the official statement. The first statement sounds like the script of a C movie, and again – disclosed by anonymous sources (what a surprise). Another accusation in the article is that we are very ‘aggressive’ in our methods of hunting for new malware. Another sensationalist media story was released today stating among other things that Kaspersky Lab helps a certain intelligence agency in getting their hands on sensitive data from another intelligence agency through the home computer of a contractor. ![]()
