Internet Security - This configuration is activated by default, when both Antivirus and Firewall components are installed (i.e. the complete installation).

• The firewall is always set to 'Safe mode' but, according to the results of the malware scan performed during the setup process, the HIPS setting may vary. If no malware is found, HIPS is set to Clean PC mode. Otherwise, the default is 'Safe Mode'.
• Behavior Blocker is Enabled.
• Only commonly infected files/folders are protected against infection.
• Only commonly exploited COM interfaces are protected.
• Defense+ is tuned to prevent infection of the system.

Proactive Security - This configuration turns CIS into the ultimate protection machine.

• All possible protections are activated and all critical COM interfaces and files are protected.

During the setup, if only Comodo Firewall installation option is selected, the next screen allows users to select this configuration as default CIS configuration. If selected, Firewall is always set to Safe mode. But according to the malware scanning results performed during the setup process, if no malware is found, HIPS is set to Clean PC mode. Otherwise, the default is Safe mode.

Rock- The Internet Security config applies only to CIS as it is tailored for having the local AV installed- so if you are using Comodo Firewall it really wouldn't be applicable. Is there any real benefit for those using CIS going with Internet Security config over Proactive? No idea, as using CIS and having a local CAV scanner installed has always been for me a matter of constant amusement.
