Unlike some rival antivirus makers, you can find cheaper prices on Kaspersky products by buying subscription codes at retail. These prices have remained static since last year, while rivals have increased theirs. You can expect to pay £17.49 for a one-year single-device subscription, which renews at £34.99 £22.49 for three devices, renewing at £44.99 and £27.99 for five devices, renewing at £54.99. Kaspersky Internet Security suite is frequently discounted, but higher renewal costs are clearly signposted and it’s easy to avoid unexpected auto-renewal charges on your credit card. Note that precautionary recommendations of this kind can also affect home users if their PC is also used for remote working. The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre confirms that Kaspersky’s products are safe for home users but advises extra precautions for government departments and businesses in certain sectors. Germany’s Federal office of Information Security, has recommended that Kaspersky be gradually replaced in business use. In statements to the press and public, Kaspersky says that all business is handled by Kaspersky Lab Limited UK, but the Kaspersky Internet Security EULA states that you’re agreeing to a contact with “AO Kaspersky Lab, a company incorporated according to the laws of the Russian Federation.” Similarly, Kaspersky’s holding company is UK-based Kaspersky Lab Limited, and the company says that all global business is carried out by Kaspersky Lab Limited UK. The company has relocated its processing of cyber threat-related data for UK and European users to its data centres in Zurich, Switzerland. Kaspersky has, at the time of writing, not fallen under British sanctions imposed on some Russian-linked businesses, nor does it appear likely to. It’s a great service, but unfortunately for the anti-malware firm, its significant business and research presence in the Russian Federation is an unavoidable issue.

It’s accurate and easy to use, and always scores high in group tests.
