We previously reported that digital security company Kaspersky Labs will be forced to stop selling their computer security software starting July 20, and software updates will be completely stopped by September 29.
Recently, Kaspersky Labs has released a statement saying that they will close their company in the United States, and their employees will have to find new jobs before the company's closure begins on July 20.
Not many details have been released about these closures and layoffs, but Kaspersky has confirmed that fewer than 50 employees will be affected, and that they will all be compensated due to the closure of the company.
Kaspersky also said that the closure of this company had to be done because now the company is not allowed to sell or update their products in the country, there is no reason for them to keep the company open again after this.
In the meantime, it was also reported that restrictions have been placed on the company's top management, from CEO to COO, corporate communications manager and so on by the United States government due to concerns about cyber security issues.
