The Trump administration put a ban on the products of Moscow-based Kaspersky Lab last month, starting a stream of allegations and speculations. While the government hasn’t clarified exactly why it’s banning the use of Kaspersky antivirus products in the federal agencies, a report released last week revealed that the reason could be Russians using the program to get into US intelligence official’s computer. Now, Israel has joined this US-Russia spectacle that has continued since at least the summer of 2016 when the country was first accused by private security firms of trying to influence US elections.

Turns out the US government banning Kaspersky products could be because of Israeli intelligence, a new report has revealed. The cybersecurity drama turned even more explosive as report suggests that it was Israel who hacked into Kaspersky’s systems and discovered that Russians were using the product as their “search engine.” The Israeli hackers saw Russians scour “computers around the world for the code names of American intelligence programs,” according to a latest The New York Times report.
