I don't know what the particular condition with Kaspersky and the US government was, but I work for a non-US based software company that has multiple special contracts with the US Federal Government; we have a special build of the software which was remade piece by piece on US soil, meets some Federal encryption guidelines, and our support is very strict on who can do what with any Federal Government account. I'm not sure if this is common place or not, but I was under the impression that if you were from outside the US and wanted to land Federal contracts, you had to be ready to bend over a bit for the US Federal Government. No other government gets the same treatment currently.
