The wide-known company specializing on system engineering of protection against computer viruses, a spam and hacker attacks “Kaspersky Laboratory” has appeared two-faced.

«Kaspersky Laboratory» - the international group of the companies with the central office in Moscow, specializing on system engineering of protection against computer viruses, a spam and hacker attacks.

During the last few years, the leakage of personal information became one of key problems of information safety. At the same time, it is considered to be, that such activity is trick of computer malefactors or unfair businessmen. However, special services are interested in data transferred on computer networks, also paying great interest to it.

Being engaged in working out of the software for protection of personal computers against corresponding threats, computer geniuses “Kaspersky Laboratory” integrate such modules to the latent code of programs which are responsible for gathering of the information from these computers during the process of scanning of system. This code transfers the information to a server of “Kaspersky Laboratory” each time when your computer is connected to the Internet, updating of anti-virus bases.

So happens and in this case. Having created a powerful anti-virus product, program applications, which collect the information from your computers and send it on a server where it is processed by experts and is transferred in corresponding bodies, have been enclosed to it.

In the stuff of “Kaspersky Laboratory”, it is created the special department specializing only on a writing of virus programs. Being acquainted with all nuances in the work of antivirus, they create such harmful elements which competitors cannot find out. By means of it the “positive” image of the company is created and the information which main consumer is FSB of Russia is in parallel extracted.

So, what is the goal of the “Kaspersky Laboratory” to collect the information on the Internet users?

The answer is very banal and simple; it is necessary just to examine a history of creation of the Company.

The founder of this "board" is not only the person who understands very well protection of the information against every possible threat.

Evgenie Valentinovich Kaspersky in 1987 graduated from a military educational institution “the Higher KGB school awarded with the Order of the Red Banner” (now also known as “the Institute of cryptography, communication and computer science of the Academy of FSB of Russia”) which trains highly skilled experts for special services of Russia.

As is known, such organisations so simply do not release such experts from their rows. Even after leaving these structures, people remain their non-staff employees, providing services for old sake's sake.

Therefore, if you have something personal that can be used against you, it is necessary to pay more attention carefully choosing antivirus and to limit access of such programs to your data!
