The cause of the lawsuit was that the United States issued a ban, saying that it was out of security concerns, banned federal agencies from purchasing, installed Kaspersky software, and Kaba lodged a lawsuit on the basis that the program was unconstitutional.
Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly dismissed the unconstitutional allegations and stated that the U.S. federal agency’s network and computer systems are extremely important national strategic assets.
The judge further emphasized that cyber security threats are constantly expanding and evolving. What federal agencies can do is identify and detect dangers as soon as possible and take preventive actions. These defense measures will inevitably have adverse consequences for third parties.
Kabbah subsequently stated in the statement that he was disappointed with the ruling and would appeal.
In fact, Kaba understands its disadvantaged position. In order to dispel the concerns of the United States, they have announced that they will build a data center in Switzerland to take over all the data collected and returned from customer software in the United States and Europe.
According to the statistics, in addition to the United States, Brazil and Lithuania also imposed a ban on Kabbah, which currently only sells products in personal computers and private companies in these regions.
