Kaspersky’s approach in dealing with law
enforcement and government requests
worldwide
Pioneering with greater transparency and accountability in cybersecurity, we share our approach inresponding to requests from law enforcement and government organizations worldwide organizations foruser-data and technical expertise. Core principles in our approach clarify how we cooperate in fighting
cybercrime, so our users can be confident trusting Kaspersky cybersecurity solutions.

Core principles in responding to law enforcement andgovernment requests
No access to user dataand infrastructure

Legal verification of all requests
to ensure our compliance withapplicable laws and procedures

We never provide any law enforcement or governmentorganization with access to user data or the company’s
infrastructure.

We verify compliance of incoming requests with applicable laws
and legal procedures in countries where Kaspersky operates,
be they narrow and specific or otherwise, and we may reject orchallenge such requests.

Support to cross-border cybercrime
investigations by sharing technicalexpertise

Requests for encryption keys
or introducing undeclared capabilities
are and always will be declined

We help national, regional and international law enforcement
agencies by assisting in cybercrime investigations, where oursecurity experts provide technical expertise and non-personaltechnical information.

We do not provide any government, law enforcement agency orinternational organization with our encryption keys, and we do
not add undeclared capabilities in our products and services.

Steps in responding to law enforcement and government
requests
External law enforcement agency or government organization issues and sends a request.

Kaspersky first conducts legal verification of all requests to comply with applicable domestic and international laws and legal
procedures. Requests should be:• legally justified;• issued in accordance with applicable laws and legal
procedures;• valid with the principles above;• technically feasible; and• their implementation should not affect the security
or privacy of Kaspersky’s users, or the integrityof Kaspersky’s products and services.

YESNO

If a request is approved by Kaspersky, the company
responds to it by providing the requested data and/ortechnical expertise, as outlined in our principles above.

If the request is not approved by Kaspersky, the company
proceeds further to reject or challenge the request or
ask for additional clarifications.

Where allowed by law, we give prior notice to users whose
data is requested.

All requests are logged, and information about them is made public at the Global Transparency Initiative pagehttps://www.kaspersky.com/transparency-center2
