Kaspersky Lab, an international data-security software developer, announces the appointment of UniDirect as its support and distribution center to service its growing reseller channel in the UK. A world technological leader in anti-virus solutions, Kaspersky Lab intends to continue its worldwide growth by expanding its UK operation and developing the reseller channel for KasperskyTM Anti-Virus (formerly known as AVP) product line.

"We are very pleased to announce our partnership with UniDirect", said Natalya Kaspersky, Kaspersky Lab CEO. "UniDirect is known to be a strong player in the UK market and the recent distribution agreement will help us fulfilling one of the top priorities within the European market penetration strategy".

"We have been evaluating anti-virus products for some time and were delighted to discover this excellent solution which we believe stands far above the rest," commented Duncan Little, MD of UniDirect. "While Kaspersky is not well known to the UK its technology is clearly superior; combine that with the speed of response to new virus threats and 24 hour support and we have a truly winning anti-virus solution."

Kaspersky Anti-Virus is available for most operating systems including Windows, UNIX Linux, Novell NetWare, OS/2, and Palm OS. Licensing is flexible allowing users to purchase exactly the number of nodes required, the products start at £31 per seat and are available in personal, professional and corporate editions.
