NEW YORK: Best Buy Co, the No.1 U.S. electronics retailer, is pulling Kaspersky Lab’s cyber security products from its shelves and website, amid concerns that the Moscow-based firm may be vulnerable to Russian government influence.
Best Buy felt there were "too many unanswered questions" and so decided to discontinue selling the antivirus products, said U.S. newspaper StarTribune, which first reported the retailer's decision, citing a source familiar with the matter.
A Best Buy spokeswoman confirmed the report but declined to provide further details. —
