Kaspersky currently offers free use of its Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Platform. While previously only the individual file or link analysis was free, the professional platform for analysis can now be used completely free of charge for threat lookup, cloud sandbox, APT, crimeware and ICS threat intelligence reporting.
Kaspersky addresses users directly on its website: “We are monitoring events in and around Ukraine very closely. These are difficult and uncertain times, but protecting all of our customers from cyber threats is our top priority. We assume that the current geopolitical situation will result in an increasing number of cyber threats. Threat actors will try to use the crisis for their own ends. To protect against this wave of cyberattacks, organizations around the world need access to trusted and timely threat intelligence.”
Free use of the Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Platform
Kaspersky goes on to say "We want to support you in this and therefore offer you access to independent, constantly updated and globally collected information on current cyber attacks and threats - all free of charge."
The usable offer of the platform includes:
- threat lookup
- Cloud Sandbox
- APT, Crimeware and ICS Threat Intelligence Reporting - Up to 10 reports can be selected from the full knowledge base.
- Threat data related to the attacks against Ukraine and neighboring regions can be made available upon request in addition to the other reports.
Short registration – free use

Kaspersky only requires users to register online to use the platform. Kaspersky's knowledge, experience and deep understanding of virtually every aspect of cybersecurity has made it a trusted partner to respected international law enforcement and government agencies, including Interpol and CERTs. Kaspersky Threat Intelligence gives users direct access to technical, tactical, operational and strategic threat intelligence.
The BSI warns against using Kaspersky software, but no one, including experts, advises against using the Threat Intelligence Platform. Many companies will probably continue to use many of Kaspersky's services. What the company founder Eugene Kaspersky thinks of the statement by the BSI he announced some time ago in an open letter. Recently, however, the BSI Received backing from the Administrative Court of Cologne. It had decided the warning was right.
