Life@Kaspersky
Why should you choose Kaspersky?
A while back, our goal was simple – to provide ordinary users with secure internet. But more recently the situation has changed: the digital world has become much bigger and more complex. Every day an infinite number of new and increasingly elaborate threats appear in the digital world. And this does not mean just some bored teens who want to get a kick out of reading your mail: today's cyber criminals are capable of destroying businesses or breaking someone's life.
This is why at Kaspersky each day we maintain the digital world’s lines of defense, making sure it does not descend into chaos. We do not just fight viruses but entire organized cyber criminal teams. Most people have no idea that right beside them serious battles are taking place online every day. The fact that people stay unaware of these battles remains the best indicator of our successful work. Everyone who struggles alongside us is our friend, ally and brother – true defenders who have no need to brag about their greatness.
Our work is like that of special agents and we are on duty 24 hours a day, 365 days a year all over the world. Each of us has their own talent from bug detecting to user interface designing, but together we form a single force. We are a global company with our head innovation development center in Moscow. We serve a single goal – to defend the digital world and make it safer for everyone.

As Aristotle said, “For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them.”
