Swiss Intelligence Agency Cooperated with Kremlin

Employees of the Swiss Federal Intelligence Service (FIS) have been cooperating with Russian contacts for years. Highly sensitive data apparently flowed out " and ended up with Russian intelligence services. The affair centers on the FIS cyber team " and a collaboration with the controversial software company Kaspersky. Research by SRF Investigativ shows that when friendly intelligence services threatened to end cooperation, the Swiss intelligence service reacted. Links:

    Kaspersky came with a computer I bought in the early 2000's. I ripped it off and replaced it with a different internet security suite for just that reason.
