Kaspersky says it’s closing down its UK office and laying off dozens


Russian cybersecurity giant Kaspersky is shutting down its office in the United Kingdom and laying off its staff, just three months after the company

Kaspersky spokesperson Francesco Tius said in an email to TechCrunch that the company “will commence a wind-down of the U.K. office operations, reorienting its business in the country toward the partner channel.” Our customers and partners in the U.K. will maintain full access to the company’s European team and its strong and well-established partner network, through which we will continue distributing Kaspersky´s industry-leading cybersecurity products and services,” the statement continued. In June, the U.S. government banned Kaspersky from selling its products in the U.S. market, which led to the company laying off its workers in the U.S. and shutting down its offices in the country.
