Kaspersky puts spotlight on cyber-immunity

CYBERJAYA: Eugene Kaspersky, chief executive of his eponymous cybersecurity firm, believes the way forward globally is for companies to evolve from cybersecurity to the wider umbrella of cyber-immunity. Cybersecurity today is not just about protecting endpoint devices. Rather, it is about developing an ecosystem where everything connected is protected, and ensuring that all the systems are secure by design—a concept that Kaspersky calls “cyber-immunity”.

He made the observation while announcing the opening of cybersecurity firm Kaspersky’s first transparency centre in the Malaysian town of Cyberjaya, in partnership with CyberSecurity Malaysia—the nation’s cybersecurity specialist agency.

The new centre of Kaspersky is its first in the Asia-Pacific region.
