The Federal Office for Information Security, or BSI, issued the warning on Tuesday, saying that companies and authorities with special security status and operators of critical infrastructure could be “particularly at risk.” The danger has increased since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the Bonn-based agency said in a press release, citing threats made by Moscow against NATO, the European Union and Germany. In 2017, the U.S. government banned all use of Kaspersky Lab software in federal information systems, citing concerns about the firm’s links to the Russian government and espionage. The company denied any wrongdoing in that case and pushed back against Germany’s move now.
