Kaspersky Lab released results of a 10-months long analysis of Epic Turla APT campaign, which is still active. One of the most sophisticated cyber-espionage campaigns, it attacked victims in 45 countries.

Kaspersky Lab has released a new IT Security Risks Survey, conducted in 2013-2014 together with B2B International. Facts and figures show that security situations in businesses improved very little, if at all. Small and mid-sized businesses still have their IT strategy low on their priorities list.

Kaspersky Lab has just released a new report on the evolution of threats in Q2. Banking Trojans grow in numbers (and the level of danger they pose), while Russia remains the most malware-attacked country.

A visual representation of a problem appears just a bit more meaningful, and at the same time more comprehensible, than large sheets of texts. Here is a big (or not so big) picture of threats to medium-sized businesses.

Security researchers uncovered yet another long-standing APT campaign aimed at exfiltration of important data from the organizations associated with strategic industrial sectors. Once again, businesses involved in these areas are

As a security vendor, we at Kaspersky Lab have to foresee possible problems stemming from essentially good things. Serious transformations in the software market bring both new advantages, but also new problems and challenges, to which we need to pay attention.

The same code base of Windows for various devices means also that the same malware can hypothetically attack all of them.

Overextended lifecycle of an OS at a certain point becomes a security problem. Will merging all Windows platforms into a single one lead to a shortening of Windows lifecycles?

Microsoft’s announcement that it is going to consolidate all of its major platforms into one is quite a logical move. But what are the possible consequences regarding businesses and cybersecurity?

Spam levels have dropped globally and it’s not a seasonal fluctuation. There is indeed less spam now in e-mail traffic. Can spam ever be beaten altogether?

Gameover ZeuS botnet is a 3-y.o. headache for security experts and users alike. It took a global operation to dismantle its C&C servers, but experts acknowledge that the botnet will most likely be back in a few weeks. Why is it so hard to beat this Hydra?

“Trojan” in computing is a misleading shortening from the self-descriptive “Trojan horse”, the ubiquitous and probably the most dangerous sort of malware.

It’s like spammers aren’t even trying anymore. Still, be on the lookout for some of these typical tricks.

Backdoor is a very graphic term, but does it explain the tech behind it? We try to shed some light.

Facebook has little to do with cybersecurity – it’s not a vendor. But at a certain point it took the battle against botnets to the enemy territory.

DoS/DDoS attacks is another popular, but somewhat under explained, term in cybersecurity. Explaining it in detail would take a monograph, so we’ll just hit the high points.

451 Research has released a very complimentary overview of Kaspersky Lab’s current position and strengths. Here’s some commentary from their report.

IT departments take most of the responsibility for the company cybersecurity. However, how fair is it to charge them with 100% of responsibility for everything that happens there? Cynthia James shares her thoughts on this matter.

We hear a lot about so-called MITM attacks, but what is it in a nutshell? Let’s look at the “layman” explanation.

A visitor to Ferrari plant may find some of our rules too restrictive. Absolutely no cameras allowed inside, and we will need your signature to confirm that you were informed

Miniduke APT campaign is reactivated. The malware received a number of updates, and a large part of it is apparently intended to throw off researchers. Not exactly a successful endeavor.
