Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management
solutions, announces its full programme of activity for Infosecurity

working, extending protection beyond the traditional workplace to
incorporate remote users, regardless of where they work and how they
access the corporate network. Designed to secure even the most
challenging and dynamic network structures, Kaspersky Lab products and
services include advanced scalability and support for all types of
endpoints and platforms. Enabling interoperability and mobility,
Kaspersky Lab solutions exceed core requirements for comprehensive
protection, in turn providing confidence and peace of mind.

In addition to Kaspersky Hosted Security Services, launched in the UK
earlier this year, visitors will be able to view the Kaspersky Open
Space Security suite (featuring the new Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for
Windows Server Enterprise Edition and Kaspersky Security for
Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 components). It will also demonstrate how
to protect against the increasing risk of malicious code penetrating the
network via mobile devices including smartphones and PDAs, using the
Kaspersky Anti-Virus Mobile Enterprise Edition, fully integrated
with its award-winning Kaspersky Administration Kit management
console.

On Wednesday 23rd April, between 10.00am and 10.25am, Eugene Kaspersky
will deliver a talk titled, Upping the Anti-: Emerging
methodologies for endpoint protection, where he will discuss
developments in anti-malware technologies, as well as provide a vision
of what he believes the future may hold. Later on Wednesday in the
London Room, 13.45 to 16.45, Mr Kaspersky will host an informative and
interactive forum on cybercrime, providing an in-depth view of the
issues and challenges businesses face today and the steps to take to
protect systems and workforce.

Attendees can pre-register for the forum by visiting:
http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/cybercrimeforum
(http://www.kaspersky.co.uk/cybercrimeforum) and the first 40 people to
attend the Kaspersky Lab Cybercrime Forum will each receive a free copy
of Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 for three users, free for one year.

"Until a few years ago, viruses and other malicious programs
tended to be isolated acts of computer vandalism; anti-social
self-expression using hi-tech means," comments Senior Technology
Consultant at Kaspersky Lab, David Emm, who will join Eugene Kaspersky
in the Cybercrime Forum. "Today we are faced with
crimeware, malicious code created for the purpose of
making money illegally, resulting in targeted, written to
order threats. In the future, crimeware authors are likely to
target the growing numbers of wireless devices increasingly used by
enterprises."

Kaspersky Open Space Security has been nominated in the Best
Security Management and Security Product of the
Year categories for SC Magazine Awards Europe 2008. The winners
will be announced on 22nd April at the SC Magazine Awards Europe taking
place at the Hurlingham Club in West London.
