The US Department of Homeland security has banned government agencies for using software products developed by Kaspersky Lab. The ban was the response to the concerns about possible ties between the security firm and Russian intelligence agencies. The order applies to all civilian government networks, but not the military ones. The company rejected any allegation and also clarified that Russian policies are applied to telecoms and ISPs, not security firms like Kaspersy. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) praised the decision.”]
