Nornickel and Kaspersky signed a cooperation agreement. This agreement will enable Nornickel to bolster information security, protect corporate and industrial infrastructure from cyber threats such as targeted, phishing and DDoS attacks.

Alexey Martyntsev, Director of Information Protection and IT Infrastructure Department at Nornickel, commented: “The purpose of the new agreement is to adapt our areas of cooperation to the changed conditions of the information security market in Russia, to new challenges and threats caused by external factors. We have been cooperating with Kaspersky for a long time and see this partnership not only as a way to strengthen Nornickel’s cyber security, but also as an opportunity to contribute to the development of information security in the industry as a whole.”

Anna Kulashova, Managing Director of Kaspersky in Russia and CIS commented: “We continue to work with Nornickel to strengthen the company’s information security. As part of the development of our long-term relationship, we plan to jointly develop and test solutions to ensure cyber defense of industrial enterprises. At such facilities, cyber threats can cause physical damage, and the risks are particularly high. We are ready to provide all necessary tools to block possible points of penetration of attackers into the company’s infrastructure, effectively conduct investigations and timely respond to detected incidents. Nornickel’s vision and expertise are valuable to us as they allow us to focus on the real needs of the industry.”

The agreement was signed at the Kaspersky Industrial Cybersecurity Conference 2023.
