Info Security, By Tara Seals

Chalk one up to information-sharing: Kaspersky Lab has signed an agreement with INTERPOL and a memorandum of understanding with Europol to expand cooperation between the company and the law enforcement agencies in their joint fight against cybercrime.

“This truly is a major leap forward in the global fight against cybercrime,” company chairman and CEO Eugene Kaspersky said, in a statement. “Such public-private cooperation is vital for improving security in cyber-space. These partnerships are perfectly aligned with our mission to ‘save the world’ from cyber-threats. As these threats’ scale and sophistication continue to grow, we have to join forces with national and international law enforcement bodies and also other private-sector security companies to effectively combat these growing hazards.”
