Kaspersky Labs is not letting labels destroy their image and reputation as a security company that focuses on computer problems and threats, bringing its services for everyone in the world.
Late last week, Kaspersky got a new label from the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that upholds them as a national security threat. Despite this development, the security firm still aims to work with the United States.

Eugene Kaspersky is a world-renowned cybersecurity expert and a successful entrepreneur. He is co-founder and CEO of Kaspersky, the world's largest private provider of endpoint protection and cybersecurity solutions.
Kaspersky released its statement on the recent post by the FCC that classified them as a threat in the country's security landscape. Here, the tech company focused on their actions after this labels on them, saying that they were disappointed with the decision of the FCC regarding their stand as a security agency in the current situation of their country of origin.
Despite Kaspersky's downcast of feelings regarding these labels against them, it will not stop the company from proving itself as a security firm that focuses on the world's cyber landscape. The company claimed that the move by the FCC got influenced by politics, but it will not be an issue for them to work with the US FCC regarding security and other matters.
Kasperksy is a National Security Threat says the FCC
FCC revealed last week that it added Kaspersky Labs to its list of national security threats that labels the company as an organization that may pose dangers to the country.

Kasperksy's Work in Security
Last week, some disputes revolved around Kaspersky Labs as a firm that carries 'unacceptable' security risk for its operations and entirety as a company. The company is a famous Russian security firm that has been around to bring antivirus software and security releases that helped several disputes and protected users from threat actors.
Early this year, the company brought a massive release that talked about the MoonBounce malware that is the company claimed to be an espionage entity in the cyber world. Kaspersky warned that this malware has links to China, and it is used for spying on people and accessing their files or network for any information they can get.
Kaspersky is a known company that focuses on security in the computer world, and the organization is a household name in the industry already, bringing its services for everyone.
Now that it is a part of the national security threat from the FCC, the company aims to work with the regulators to change this view on them and prove their focus on cybersecurity in general.
