Advanced Plus Security Blackice's XPS 15 Config 2020

[blackice]

Just did a fresh install on ladyice's old laptop. It is now mine . Move my ESET license over. I probably will create a local admin and move to SUA once I have it all setup.

Oh and I upgraded from 8GB to 16GB DDR 4

Great laptop and great config. Lite, fast, safe and secured

After tweaking ESET HIPS I removed OSArmor to test. OSArmor was blocking all the Dell update/whatever else scripts anyway, though I think I figured out the needed exceptions. I like OSArmor, it did it’s job blocking VBS scripts...just too well.

Removed-
OSArmor

Btw, did you create ask rule/block rule in ESET HIPS? I prefer creating ask rule because like your Dell updates example, sometimes legit apps would require those functions and making an ask rule is the easy way to allow those when necessary.

Depending on the function I do ask. If it’s something I know I don’t use then I block, otherwise ask is preferable.
