\u201cContinual participation in independent tests is an integral part of the effective development of technologies, which can then be efficiently incorporated into cybersecurity solutions. Regular analysis of such results allows us to discover real areas for improvement in our technology and confirms the levels of protection provided to our customers from real cyberthreats. We are pleased to have received such high results in 2021, which once again demonstrate the high quality of our security technologies and solutions,\u201d comments Alexander Liskin, Head of Threat Research at Kaspersky.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
