Our company had a firewall developed by Kaspersky. The form owner had this installed cheap as shit. When the cyber insurance came in to do an audit prior to insuring our company. The tech who was check said
‘ Oh shit” now that I have been on your system I need a new laptop top why the hell do you have this Russian spy wear on your server? $65k later and every device that ever was allowed to vpn in was replaced. We had international costumers who were notified and not happy. Not sure how government deals daily with the cyber attacks. I now know our system is safe. We will fire let go of anyone who plugs a thumb drive into any thing connected to our server. The new firewall can find where the breach occurred
