Russian cybersecurity firm Kaspersky Lab has confirmed that it will officially end its U.S. operations on July 20, 2024, following sanctions from the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), imposed on back in June. Additionally, the U.S. Department of Commerce has added Kaspersky Lab and its affiliates to the Entity List, preventing American businesses from engaging with them.
