Yea I kinda think so but so far all works well hand in hand and my PC not overkilled by all those apps lol I don't use the Ransomeware tool from Bitdefender so decided to use the Kaspersky one. I always used a Anti-Malware app such as Malwarebyte but because their new version is buggy as hell, Zemana seem to work very well.

BD's antiransomware is not the same as kaspersky's one
kaspersky uses KSN (signatures, cloud) to detect malicious files and system rollback (reverts changes if possible)
while BD simply protects specific folders against any modification independent on signatures
zemana does work well in most PC but BD is also an antimalware so you don't have to worry about

if you have enough resources, you can keep BD (gatekeeper), zemana (very strong signatures) and VS (lockdown + VT lookup + Ai). VS is the strongest but requires an internet connection to work. However, to save some resources, you should remove kaspersky and also because having many security products can cause conflicts and may reduce your security

edit: I used to be paranoid about security but now I trimmed down my security setup into 2 products although I have licenses for zemana, malwarebytes and a few more products

You are correct, too many security softwares can interfere with each other. But they could also compliment each other, making sure all Malwares, if not most of them, get caught. I like to think that 1 software that does only a specific task (such as Zemana), is better than 1 software doing several things like being a Antivirus, Anti-Malware, Anti-Ransomware, etc...

I am not so paranoid about security, I mainly use common sense

My PC is fairly powerful (i7 4ghz, 32gb ram, gtx 1080, ssd) so not so worried about my ressources

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Oh, so you bought Zemana Anti-Malware, now Kaspersky Anti-Ransomware Tool is useless, Zemana is considered the best anti ransomware by MRG Effitas, you can check the results here: (be sure on turning on Pandora Cloud-Sandbox Technology for being protected of Ransomware) Zemana AntiMalware proved to be the best ransomware protection among globally known products. So now you bought Zemana you can uninstall Kaspersky without any problem
