[QUOTE="RoboMan, post: 737689, member: 53544"] [LIST] [*][B]Do you consider your own PC security to be the best?[/B] [/LIST] Definitely not. I'm not locking my system down. I'm actually trying an extremely light combo to test the compatibility of non-instrusive/injective software, mixing Windows Defender (ConfigureDefender), OSArmor, Windows Firewall Control and safe habits. [LIST] [*][B]What areas do you think can be improved?[/B] [/LIST] Definitely I do not have the best detection system, but my style at the moment is to avoid 3rd party antivirus since I am tired of browser and app injections breaking everything and giving me blank screens or random errors. [LIST] [*][B]Can anyone use your security config and be as safe?[/B] [/LIST] Complemented with safe habits and knowledge, I think this is a really great protection technique, avoiding incompatibility, slowdowns or errors/blank screens. Safe habits and browser protection (uBlock, noCoin, NoScript, HTTPS Everywhere) should avoid malware downloading. In case some new malware tactic pops up and I'm somehow targeted, OSArmor should help me there. And WFC will give me the control over the connections in my system in case any software server gets compromised (a.k.a CCleaner) [LIST] [*][B]Reasons why it might not be?[/B] [/LIST] It may not be safe for a regular user/average Joe, who will just download cracks and keygens or surf with an ad-blocker. It's suppossed to complement the daily online knowledge. Wouldn't install on my mom's PC. [LIST] [*][B]If your security is not the best, why do you use it?[/B] [/LIST] Because I'm trying to step aside from 3rd party companies that inject everything they can and break most of the scenarios for the "benefit" of protecting me from something I'm not ever facing.
