Basic Security Electr0n's Old Laptop security configuration (+Work PC)

[Deletedmessiah]

Oh well in that case I am not sure how the setup for two different machines can be reflected on a same post.

You can do something like this under your main config for a second or third device,

Spoiler: My second PC

OS: Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB
Real-Time protection: Eset Internet security

ublock origin has option for disabling webRTC which I have been using since it's introduction, is it not good enough?

WebRTC Leak Test: Prevent IP Address Leaks | ExpressVPN

Check to ensure it's working.

 

[Prorootect]

Yes too, but I check with this ultimate whoer.net: How to find and check my IP address
... and: ip-secrets.com: IP-Secrets - What is my IP? - click: Your WebRTC IP-Adress: Click here

 

[Electr0n]

Thanks for the links @Opcode and @Prorootect. Can confirm that ublock origin is blocking webRTC.

Updated my current thread with my other laptop's setup. Thanks to @Deletedmessiah

I think there's still some way to upgrade to Windows 10 for free. Microsoft said they ended accessibility "loophole" but I read somewhere you can still update it.
I had updated to Windows 10 years ago just in case and then reverted back I was thinking of giving 10 another chance again but got too lazy to update

Thanks but i don't think i will bother anymore, i must have been feeling brave that day i was going to do it, i am back to being a scaredy cat

I would like to suggest either Macrum Reflect or Aomei Backupper both have a free and reliable version to create system images to back up from.

Macrium reflect free has lesser options when compared to easeus. Not sure about Aomei backupper. Any flaws for easeus todo free?

total overkill.....with cis setup correctly ( @cruelsister ) settings it's a stronghold , no need for hips to be turned on or any adittion of any other anti ransomware , other security apps in realtime!

Maybe it's a bit overkill, but I am just covering the bases in case comodo bugs out.

Hello Electr0n,
I've changed (in Chrome Cent) my theme, and extension to invert the text color.

Now, use "Morpheon Dark" theme: Morpheon Dark (- to revert to default theme, go to Chrome /Appearance - then click on "Reset to default theme" button) - this Morpheon Dark theme is the best one...
Abandoned "Dark Background and Light Text", changed to "Dark Mode" extension (and for Firefox and forks too): Dark Mode - then notch in Options: Dark mode #3 (sharp dark) - best to my eyes.

In my script blockers, I've blocked fonts.googleapis.com - cause it over-exagerated the bolding of text...

Thanks @Prorootect, I am loving the dark mode extension for Firefox. However I don't use chrome that much nowadays, but will give that one a try too.

If you want to take advantage of Many Marvellous Chrome extensions, then download portable version only, of Chrome forks, like Slimjet, Cent, Opera....etc
You will be fulfilled, I swear - in your new field of experience with Chrome extensions...

Chrome store foxified add on helps to install extensions from chrome web store in Firefox, I am a supporter of Mozilla, but after the quantum update this extension helps to install chrome extensions on FF, this is what reduced my Chrome usage.
