St Basil's Cathedral is an image which is unmistakably Russian. But not all associations are so attractive to day trippers and overseas visitors.
Unfortunately among the other things Russia has become closely associated with in recent years is cyber crime - the writing of malicious code, predominantly for financial gain.
Despite this, the city is also home to a fast growing force in the IT security market. silicon.com recently travelled to the Russian capital to visit the offices of Kaspersky Labs.

Did you notice "Lada" written in highly styled Cyrillic on coupe models?
It stopped me in my tracks.

Have used Kaspersky anti-virus software for three years. Eminently satisfied with it and UK support. Fascinating Silicon background photos.

I am very dissapointed that there are no pictures of Valerie Kaspersky here. She is very easy on the eye and self-evidently a very smart lady.
