Either you’ve never worked in this space, or because it wasn’t present in the few IT departments you’ve worked in, you extrapolated that to mean it wasn’t present in any large organization.
By all means, I don’t disagree that American firms should not be using Kaspersky, just as Russian firms should not be using Sophos (UK based), but to pretend that they aren’t one of the oldest and most well-established brands in the space is misinformed at best.
I think you confused the fact they have a retail product presence, to mean that they don’t have serious enterprise solutions, but they do: NDR, XDR, agentless for hypervisors, etc.
I used Kaspersky for a short while before dropping it. Honestly, it seems like anti virus software goes into enshitification faster than any other thing I can think of. One year, a specific brand is recommended by everyone, then the next, the ceo is fucking dolphins or something.
dude at no time did they ever have clout with corps. kasp has always been a retail POS. garbage for the front counter at BestBuy.
no business or govt agency ive ever worked with considered kasperksy. it was never even an option on the table.
That is so wrong that it’s actually impressive.
