Case Study: Bolshoi Theatre achieves 24/7 managed cyber protection with Kaspersky Lab (Kaspersky MDR)

Kaspersky became an official partner of the Bolshoi Theatre

The Bolshoi Theatre, one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious opera and ballet institutions, faced an urgent cybersecurity challenge: protect sensitive employee, artist and customer data and intellectual property against an increasing number and sophistication of cyberattacks while operating with only a small in‑house security team. To meet this need the Bolshoi Theatre selected Kaspersky Lab and its managed security offerings.

Kaspersky Lab implemented Kaspersky MDR along with Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway and core endpoint protection, providing 24/7 monitoring, proactive threat hunting and incident response by Kaspersky’s SOC experts. The deployment was completed without disrupting internal processes, despite challenges removing a legacy AV product, and delivered measurable benefits: continuous managed protection that automatically blocks mass threats, increased organizational resilience, transfer of routine security tasks to Kaspersky’s SOC, significant resource savings and optimized information‑security investment.
