Do we actually need so many security programs?

[QUOTE="509322, post: 774856"] KIS does not alert the user when something they have disabled is blocked. Therefore, the user has no way of researching what has happened via alerts or a log. Application Control log does not record the blocking of user-disabled processes. AppGuard alerts and logs when something is blocked that the user has disabled. It is a convenience that goes a long way in troubleshooting when there is some breakage. Anyway, KIS offers a high security for those who are willing to put in a little bit of effort to learn how it functions and to use it properly (by locking-down their system and not constantly installing new softs and not introducing new stuff to their system will-nilly as they want, despite Kaspersky saying this is OK... because it definitely isn't OK). The one thing that has to change is user behavior. If the user behavior does not change, nothing will change. Security softs cannot protect users from themselves. [/QUOTE]
