"The products provided will meet functional requirements and capabilities for: client, data and server protection; data loss prevention; vulnerability management; email gateway security; and network intrusion prevention," the Defense Department said.
The US federal government is currently replacing all Kapersky Lab products that it previously used, following a September2017 Department of Homeland Security ban ordering all state agencies and departments to stop using them over their potential threat to internal cybersecurity.
Kaspersky has repeatedly refuted cyber-espionage allegations and has attempted to fight the ban in US courts.
