Advanced Plus Security blackice's 2023 Security Configuration

Trying F-Secure out again for the remainder of my sub. I have been running plex on my local network on my gaming PC and moving files around more, so wanted to give something other than Defender a shot.

Great setup. Our ISP provides a free version of F-secure. I tried F-secure a few years ago and it had DeepGuard. Does F-secure still has it? From what I remember DeepGuard could be tweaked in the past and provide simular protection as OS-Armor (although I think that the shell command and parameter protection of OS-armor is the most granular because it works as a blacklist in default settings).

I don’t think there are many options to tweak in F-Secure anymore. But DeepGuard is still part of the program.

Changed main browser to Chrome, it has the best tab syncing with mobile. Trying out ControlD for my iPhone. The best alternative to AdGuard since I'm not using Safari.

I’m in the process of trying it out as well. Simply for adblocking it is great and very easy to manage. With much less whitelisting needed than NextDNS.
