Notes by Staff Team

  2. This setup configuration does not have a backup plan. We strongly recommend to add a backup solution for your data so that you can restore it in the case of an emergency.
    Backing up allows the recovery of data that has been lost due of a malware attack (eg. ransomware) or a hard disk crash. In such events you might lose family photos, your music collection, documents, or financial data. Backups are fast and simple to perform so it should be done on a regular basis.

Superantispyware free as real-time protection is not necessary, keep it only for on demand scans.

Please kindly consider:
  • Specify the exact version of Bullguard IS product You have installed.
  • As for "Disk Imaging Backup", You may add Macrium Reflect Free or AOEMI Backupper, both are free and reliably.
  • Consider also to run manual backups of important data to external devices.
  • As for "Virus and Malware Removal Tools", BG IS is not a such a tool but Your real-time protection, so delete it from this fields. You may add: ZAM Free and Norton Power Eraser, and HitManPro Free.
  • As for "Web Privacy", a VPN service.
  • A PassWord Manager would be welcome also.
Please kindly reflect Your changes editing Your config, and announcing them here, hanks for sharing :giggle:

- Macrium Reflect
- I would change Superantispyware Free to MBAM and/or Zemana Anti Malware, the software and definitions are completely not up to standard any more

Thanks for sharing.
