Russia Declares War on Cybersecurity: Recorded Future’s “Undesirable” Status Unveiled
Recorded Future, dubbed “undesirable” by Russia, is now in the exclusive club of banned Western NGOs. Allegedly aiding Western propaganda and Ukraine, the company was ironically complimented by its CEO, who sees this as a rare honor. Mastercard must be thrilled with their $2.65 billion investment in a now-forbidden fruit!

Hot Take:
When a cybersecurity firm gets labeled “undesirable” by Russia, it’s like getting a gold star for doing your job just a bit too well. Recorded Future just leveled up to Bond villain status, sans the evil lair. I mean, when your CEO treats it as a “rare compliment,” you know you’re doing something right… or terribly wrong, depending on which side of the Iron Curtain you’re standing.
Key Points:
- Recorded Future has been tagged “undesirable” by Russian authorities.
- This label effectively bans the company’s operations in Russia.
- Russia accuses Recorded Future of aiding Western propaganda and Ukraine.
- Recorded Future’s acquisition by Mastercard was recently announced.
- The company’s CEO sees the “undesirable” status as a compliment.
