Kaspersky Endpoint Security for business is now sold as Kaspersky Next, a set of tiers from endpoint protection through EDR to XDR and managed detection, run from a cloud or on-premise console.

Gulf Infotech, serving businesses across the Middle East since 2007, designs, deploys, renews and supports Kaspersky for companies in Oman, the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

Which Kaspersky Next tier fits your business?

Takeaway: for most 20 to 200 device companies, EDR Foundations or EDR Optimum is the sensible choice. Move up only when someone will actually act on the alerts.

Where is Kaspersky restricted?

Buyers ask us this often, so here are the facts we can verify as of October 2026:

What this means for you: if your company has a US parent, US government contracts, or a group security policy that excludes Russian-origin software, Kaspersky is likely ruled out. Check sector rules and customer contracts too. For everyone else it is a business decision, and we will show you Bitdefender and Microsoft Defender alongside it.

  • United States: on 20 June 2024 the US Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security barred Kaspersky from providing antivirus and cybersecurity products or services in the US or to US persons. Updates there stopped after 29 September 2024.
  • Germany: on 15 March 2022 the federal cybersecurity office (BSI) issued a public warning recommending that organisations replace Kaspersky antivirus products.
  • GCC: Kaspersky sells its Next business range through its Middle East website, and runs a Transparency Center in Riyadh where regulators and enterprise customers can review its source code. Its consumer VPN is not available in Oman, Qatar or Saudi Arabia; that restriction is about VPN use, not endpoint protection.

How much does Kaspersky Endpoint Security for business cost?

We quote Kaspersky business products for your requirement: the price depends on the tier, the number of devices you protect and the licence term. We supply the licences in each country we serve, and we confirm the Next tiers and Small Office Security options available for your country when we quote. We quote in your local currency, excluding VAT (Oman and UAE 5%, Saudi Arabia 15%, Bahrain 10%, Qatar and Kuwait none). Security products are quoted for your requirement. For comparison, Microsoft Defender for Business covers up to five devices per user and is included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium with Copilot.

Frequently asked questions

Which Kaspersky edition fits a small business?
For an office of up to a few dozen devices with no IT admin, Kaspersky Small Office Security is the simplest choice. Once you have an IT person and want central policies and root cause analysis, Kaspersky Next EDR Foundations is the usual starting point. Choose EDR Optimum if someone will investigate alerts. We size it on your device count and setup.
How much does it cost?
We quote Kaspersky for the number of devices you protect, and the price rises with the tier: EDR Foundations costs less than EDR Optimum or XDR. Gulf Infotech quotes in OMR, AED, QAR or USD. Send us your device count, operating systems and renewal date and we will quote the right tier and term.
Cloud or on-premise console?
Both are available. Kaspersky recommends its cloud console, which needs no server and lets you manage devices from anywhere. If you prefer to keep management on your own network, Kaspersky Security Center installs on a server you control. We usually suggest cloud for small and mid-sized firms, and on-premise where policy requires local management.
Can you migrate us from another antivirus?
Yes. We inventory your devices, remove the old product cleanly, deploy Kaspersky agents in batches and confirm every device reports to the console. We do it typically outside working hours, starting with a pilot group. We also migrate the other way, from Kaspersky to Bitdefender or Microsoft Defender, for companies whose policies have changed.
Is Kaspersky banned in the GCC?
We have not found a GCC government ban on Kaspersky business products as of October 2026, and Kaspersky sells its Next range through its Middle East website. It is banned for US customers since 2024, and Germany's BSI warned against it in 2022. If your parent company, customers or regulator restrict Russian-origin software, choose another vendor.
Can we keep using Kaspersky with Microsoft 365?
Yes. Kaspersky protects the devices, and Microsoft 365 handles email and files, so they work side by side. If you are on Microsoft 365 Business Premium you already pay for Microsoft Defender for Business, so we check whether running both still makes sense before you renew. Often one of the two can go.
