The ban stemmed from concerns about ties between Kaspersky Lab and Russian intelligence agencies. A separate bill called the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), passed by Congress and approved by President Trump, also banned Kaspersky products for federal use.<\/p>\n<p>Kaspersky fought back against both with a December 2017 lawsuit in which it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/attacks-breaches\/kaspersky-lab-files-lawsuit-over-dhs-ban-of-its-products\/d\/d-id\/1330665\" target=\"_blank\">demanded<\/a> the court reverse its decision, arguing it had not been given a fair opportunity and the DHS had not provided technical evidence to validate its actions. In January, it filed a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/vulnerabilities---threats\/kaspersky-lab-seeks-injunction-against-us-government-ban\/d\/d-id\/1330860\" target=\"_blank\">motion<\/a> for a preliminary injection in the lawsuit, claiming the ban had caused damage to its reputation and revenue.<\/p>\n<p>US District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly has rejected Kaspersky&#8217;s argument stating the ban was unconstitutional. The decision is necessary, she says, for US government security and while the government&#8217;s defensive actions may have &#8220;adverse consequences&#8221; for some third parties, they&#8217;re not necessarily unconstitutional.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The NDAA does not inflict &#8216;punishment&#8217; on Kaspersky Lab,&#8221; she says in a memorandum published on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyberscoop.com\/kaspersky-lawsuits-dismissed-us-government-ban\/\" target=\"_blank\">CyberScoop<\/a>. &#8220;It eliminates a perceived risk to the Nation&#8217;s cybersecurity and, in so doing, has the secondary effect of foreclosing one small source of revenue for a large multinational corporation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Following the court&#8217;s decision, Kaspersky issued a statement to express its disappointment and maintain the government&#8217;s actions were both unconstitutional and unfair. It plans to pursue its rights to appeal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given the lack of evidence of wrongdoing by the company and the imputation of malicious cyber activity by nation-states to a private company, these decisions have broad implications for the broader technology community,&#8221; the company <a href=\"https:\/\/usa.kaspersky.com\/about\/press-releases\/2018_kaspersky-lab-statement-on-courts-decision-on-may-30-2018\" target=\"_blank\">states<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The ban will come into effect on October 1.
