KSN possesses the very latest information about security incidents, which is added to a map of the world in real time so that anyone can view the wide variety of threats, and the speed at which they spread. If it is malicious, access to the object is promptly blocked for all other Kaspersky Lab users, thus preventing an epidemic, the company said. Internal KSN mechanisms summarise the data sent automatically from thousands of protected devices whose users consented to share information about any suspicious programs they encounter.Īfter comparing the behaviour of the file on different computers, checking it against a database of hundreds of thousands of legitimate applications and using heuristic algorithms, the system issues a preliminary verdict on whether or not the object is malicious. Kaspersky Lab’s globally distributed cloud-based infrastructure – Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) – helps the company’s products receive information about new suspicious files and other threats almost immediately after they appear. In today's world of cyberthreats, it only takes a few minutes to spread new malicious applications or spam. The types of threats displayed include malicious objects detected during on-access and on-demand scans, email and web antivirus detections, as well as objects identified by vulnerability and intrusion detection sub-systems, the company said in a statement. KASPERSKY Lab has launched an interactive cyber-threat map that visualises cyber-security incidents occurring worldwide in real time.
