Do we actually need so many security programs?

[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 773713, member: 61892"] Indeed, I have tried to limit it to None, but just like too many, neither is the best option for everyone. Finding the right balance for your PC is essential. True, many computers have been hacked, simply because security software have SYSTEM rights, so AV's vulnerability is more than critical, like [URL='https://cybellum.com/doubleagent-taking-full-control-antivirus/']DoubleAgent[/URL]. and they do not always disclose it, obviously, they just quietly patch it. Windows Defender is not invulnerable either ([URL='https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-0290']mpengine[/URL]). What is your security? Since it is your config, that triggered the question, I would like to know. :giggle: [URL="https://malwaretips.com/threads/bribon77-2018-security-configuration.78577/"]SECURE: Basic - Bribon77 2018 security configuration[/URL] [/QUOTE]
