The smartest way to protect against ransomware are scheduled backups.

Do you recommend any program for backups ?

I got my external hard drive 1tb full I'm afraid it can have nay virus

• Windows File Backup
• Macrium Reflect (scheduled)
• USB Flash Drive (physical)
• Dropbox (cloud)

I use Dropbox and I protect the Dropbox folder from modification. In other words, you make Dropbox read-only. You create files on the Desktop and then manually move them to the Dropbox folder. When you want to modify a file in Dropbox, you have to move it out, modify it, and then move it back to Dropbox.

There are different backup strategies. You have to find what works best for you personally.

Kaspersky have TAM (Trusted Application Mode), so i think it's pretty useless to use Kaspersky and Voodoo
together. I think it's better replace Voodoo with NVT OSArmor/SysHardener

Depends how you got infected? First rule, would be learning safe habits while browsing.

Piling software doesnt really help, since there arent 100% protection if the user allows malware manually

But everyone makes mistakes, its very rare case to be infected by ransomware...and incase that happens you want to have backup ( as already mentioned in this thread) , if you keep files or do working on your pc

Personaly i dont care about backups, since i have nothing on my computer that i really need and incase i do i would prefer onedrive or or any other cloud to keep copy of my cv, or something like that.

I would prefer Ransomoff, for ransomware protection + kaspersky free to have most advanced threat removal + website filter out there

Anyways you have to think what went wrong when you got infected and how you can avoid that in future

If you torrent or do use cracked software, only way to avoid this from happening is completely stop torrenting/ using illegal software as example

Voodooshield + Kaspersky (free) or Voodooshield + Eset (paid). Probably the most possible secure combination keeping the performance of your PC fast in my opinion. Voodooshield except the default deny option also provides a virus total scan result which is very good in case your AV doesn't have a signature to detect a specific malware. Of course nothing is 100% secure, if a sample has really 0 engine detection on virus total, Voodooshield will still warn you but if you insist to run the malware then your system will be infected no matter what.

I'm currently running Voodoo, KFA and NVT OSA. It's super light and haven't had a conflict yet. Voodoo default deny is excellent along with the sandbox Cockoo running virus total. KFA is light and has some great sigs along with the web blocking. NVT OSA just sits there harnening the OS.

Stay with Kaspersky and Shadow Defender...it will be good and enough.

Backup software won't keep the Ransomware away. Windows users are naïve.

Same experience as yours, but use KSC Free instead (with VS and OSA) because the modules can be tweaked further. Super light too, no conflicts, but have gotten suggestions to give up VS. Still thinking about it.

Backup is not meant to keep ransomware away, but instead to restore files in the worst case scenario.

Backup software will keep ransomeware away. How?

You must be a loyal Windows user since it is an ancestral secret passed down since generations of pure-blood Windows users.

You Linux users and your multiplicating bastardized distros will never learn it!!!!

If you use a paid Kaspersky application then VoodooShield becomes redundant due to Application Control. Just set it up to move unknown files to untrusted group.

Instead of local disk imaging, I suggest you consider pCloud for cloud data storage. Premium subscription allows rolling back 30 days.

I tried KSC but i did get a little slow down when browsing. It also ran ran around 400K for some reason during scans. KFA doesn't seem to have those issues and I really don't need the extra modules.

I did not say it does, it was recommended by another member.

Internet users lack the necessary knowledge to remain malware-free, and-is especially true for Windows OS and Android users. A single Click or Tap can compromise the entire system. Windows 10 - the most secure Windows to date - has hundreds of thousands of infected computers.

OP of this thread does not even know if their external hard disk drive is infected or not. It's common for Windows users to not know they run the PC with admin rights. Microsoft does not enforce the Standard user account.

 

[Deleted member 178]

My post was a joke, and I agree Windows must enforce SUA, but then, thousands will whine...

 

[Thales]

Against ransomware?
1st, Manually (it is crucial) started cloud based backup (paid)!
2nd, SRP (disallowed) + SUA
3rd, HMPA

That's all. I don't need anything else. Less is more! lol
