Kaspersky Anti-Virus (Russian: Антивирус Касперского (Antivirus Kasperskogo); formerly known as AntiViral Toolkit Pro; often referred to as KAV) is a proprietary antivirus program developed by Kaspersky Lab. It is designed to protect users from malware and is primarily designed for computers running Microsoft Windows and macOS, although a version for Linux is available for business consumers. Since 2023, Kaspersky has moved to a subscription model, and in the new lineup, Kaspersky Anti-Virus was replaced by Kaspersky Standard.
