I recently bought AppGuard for this PC after some reading. The problem I have with both of my PC's one of which is my daughters is that they get used by others (idiots?) while I am out which does cause concern to me
I did have WAR on this PC but removed it as they (AppGuard) do the same thing albeit in different ways?? Though IMO WAR isn't that good & has an interface that would have been fine with Windows 3 - I now have Panda AV Pro, HPA, & ZAM & AppGuard, (oh & a lifetime licence I got 100 years ago for Trojan Remover) along with Malwarebytes which is used at the moment for occasional use as for me 3 isn't working properly yet & will probably always be used for an occasional scan (lifetime licences) on this PC, other PC' & Laptop have similar.
Gradually finding my way around AppGuard & going to get a second licence for my daughter's PC after the holidays. Any comments on anything I've put would be helpful. I don't have any problems buying security software though in 20+ years of using the net I've only had one infection loose on any system, but I've always been a little (very?) paranoid about security. Best protection I have though is Reflect Image & multiple backups of
all data. So far most impressed with AppGuard..... Regards Paul
Since 3rd parties unknown are using your daughter's system, I suggest running in Locked Down mode. Even better would be locking them out of the Admin account by enabling the Standard User Account and password protecting both. These measures are all undone if the Admin account password is shared.
The AVs and anti-exploit you have installed are sufficient. Actually, they are overkill - unless someone is routinely lowering AppGuard's protection to "Allow Install" and installing programs.
Chrome, Firefox, MicrosoftEdge are all auto-detected by AppGuard and added to the Guarded Apps list and run with limited access rights and memory protections. If a different browser is being used, then add it to the Guarded Apps list with Privacy set to YES.
The same applies to any non-Microsoft Office suite being used, but in that case you want to set Privacy to NO. You want to do it this way so those text editor\spreadsheet\presentation programs can save created to MyPrivateFolder (a file vault).
If any Guarded Apps are exploited, then the payload will inherit the Guarded Apps's restrictions and also will not be allowed to launch.
Don't get carried away and add a whole bunch of programs to Guarded Apps. Stick to the fundamentals - commonly exploited programs = browsers, archivers, office suite programs, video players, etc. It would essentially be the same as those programs that are auto-added by HMP.A to its protection list.
Disable Flash - unless it is needed. Some online course work portals use it.
Any questions about use, just ask.
PS - You didn't mention if it is desktop or laptop. If it is a laptop and your daughter is using public hotspot wifi, then you need a firewall. Post back and we'll give you some suggestions.
