Hello,

This moment described in FAQ:

 
https://os.kaspersky.com/faq-general/

KasperskyOS is a specialized operating system. At the moment, it can only serve as the basis for designs intended for embedded IT systems with features required by specific clients.

That said, we are confident that Cyber Immunity is an important trend that will grow fast in the segment of personal digital devices, among others. Thanks to Cyber Immunity users won’t have to worry about the security of their devices, as these will be protected from most cyberattacks by default. This is a future worth striving for.

 

Best regards,

Hello,

Yeah, i know it is only for IoT...
But my thought was replace Windows OS with Kaspersky OS for home users for example...

Maybe it is too much from me.

What do you think about this?

Unfortunately, there is currently no development in this direction.

Would be very interesting project but... Creating OS is huge project. Its not only one program...

So we have still Windows, Linux and MacOS for use..

Currently, there is available a Community Edition of our OS. But is only for developing purposes.

Kaspersky OS, developed by Kaspersky Lab, is a secure operating system designed primarily for high-stakes environments like critical infrastructure, IoT devices, and enterprise-level applications where cybersecurity is paramount. Its architecture prioritizes security by design, using a microkernel-based approach that reduces the attack surface and isolates processes to contain potential breaches.

For personal use, however, Kaspersky OS is not commonly available or optimized, and it isn't intended to replace mainstream operating systems like Windows, macOS, or Linux. It lacks the user-friendly interface, software compatibility, and flexibility needed for typical personal or home computing tasks. The OS is engineered to support systems that require strict security controls over usability, so it’s often deployed in specialized fields, not consumer environments.

For those interested in personal security, Kaspersky provides antivirus and internet security software suites tailored for individual users, which might be more appropriate for personal use.
