Kaspersky Chief Says Willing To Allow U.S. Officials To Examine Products' Source Code
https://www.rferl.org/a/kaspersky-la.../28591824.html …
what many do not understand about IT security and hacking and or malware attacks...they are designed usually to exploit weaknesses in the coding of a software product.....
In millions of lines of coding there is always a deficient line or two that allow exploitations against those specific code weaknesses....
This also goes for anti viral software.....REMEMBER when the latest Russian cyber attack on Ukraine hit...ONLY 16 anti viral products actually detected it out of a tested leading 25 AV products......
THIS goes also for Kaspersky.....ALL software has back doors...and I literally mean ALL....that is what hackers are always looking for to include nation state security services....
THIS response by Russia concerning Kaspersky is extremely interesting as they have never responded in this way if for say Rosneft or Gazprom loses a deal...........
REMEMBER in the Kaspersky cyber lab there are FSB liaison officers..one was recently arrested for allegedly spying for the US.....AND Kaspersky has all the end user individual computer data as it provides support for those legally purchased copes of their software.
Russia Threatens Retaliation If Pentagon Bans Kaspersky Software

REMEMBER Russia has forced all US IT companies to provide them all backdoors and source coding in order to do business in Russia...WHICH they all complied with including say Cisco and IBM....Any “unilateral political sanctions” by the U.S. may prompt a response from Russia, whose government systems use “a huge proportion of American software and hardware solutions in the IT sphere, even in very sensitive areas,” Nikiforov said in an interview on Friday. He declined to identify U.S. software products that may be affected by any reciprocal sanctions.
So when the US does he same the Russians flip out.....WHY......

Core element of Russian non linear warfare.....Russian doctrine from 2014...
Taken from George Kennan 1948....The first and second phases consist of non-military asymmetric warfare. They include information warfare, psychological, ideological, diplomatic, and economic measures, but also special operations conducted to mislead political and military leaders. Coordinated measures are carried out by diplomatic channels, media, top government and military agencies; they include leaking false data, orders, directives, and instructions. The third phase’s objective is to consolidate the first two, by intimidating, deceiving, or bribing government and military officers, with the objective of making them abandon their duties.
Political warfare is the logical application of Clausewitz's doctrine in time of peace. In broadest definition,
political warfare is the employment of all the means at a nation's command, short of war, to achieve its national
objectives. Such operations are both overt and covert. They range from such overt actions as political alliances, economic measures (as ERP--the Marshall Plan), and "white" propaganda to such covert operations as clandestine support of "friendly" foreign elements, "black" psychological warfare and even encouragement of underground resistance in hostile states.
