So, the new year is time for a new config. I decided to find some free solution that would require the least amount of attention from me. FS-Protect is a pretty quiet guy, and the license is renewed every six months, the main thing is at least sometimes to send bug reports, but there is no problem with that, I already sent one.
) SEP Firewall is powerful and easy to configure, and notifies about changes in the installed software, which is quite handy.
