By Staff harlan4096 Security Config 2025

[harlan4096]

Well, I've radically changed my main security setup, just changed Kaspersky Premium to Kaspersky Endpoint Security, that comes with some additional and interesting security features. A

Although I can't access to all the power of KES, if it is not managed by a console (probably will implement later), still will improve my security compared to KPremium.

Not sure wether I should dare to give recommendations to a mod but I will just do it. (Please don't ban me <3)

You may want to replace RogueKiller with ESET Online Scanner. I'm sure its a better option.

Also you should definitely take a closer look at SafeToOpen. From my experiences it performs better than Netcraft.

And why not just disable WebRTC in about config? You don't need an extension for that.

 

[SpiderWeb]

I like it. Well thought out and layered security with second opinion scanners.

• KeyScrambler Free

I used to use this years ago, and then I stopped using it. Let me ask you this, Is it necessary with Kaspersky?

I know RogueKiller performing is so so, probably I keep it by inertia... tried also sometimes ESET OS in the past, will give again a try.

About SafeToOpen, looks very interesting, but sometimes it is giving so many big screen and very paranoid warnings for my taste hehe...

About WebRTC, the reason to use this add-on is that in some sites I have to re-enable WebRTC, and this way just with 1 fast and simple click can turn on / off.

Thanks for Your suggestions

I think We have already commented this in the forum, Kaspersky home products only offers key encryption (Secure Input feature) when using supported browsers and also during Safe Money sessions, but KES (it's a business product line) does not have Secure Input nor Safe Money features. In Kaspersky there is not a specific module anti-key logging, detection of that suspicious behavior is integrated in System Watcher module. Anyway I feel more secure myself adding a layer with KeyScrambler Free, that works fine while using FireFox, for example.

 

[harlan4096]

Made some changes, check section: Notable changes.

 

[lokamoka820]

I like your set of periodic malware scanners and browsers and extensions, nice choices, but I want to ask about WPD, is it still effective although it didn't get updated for a while now?

 

[harlan4096]

About WPD, probably new versions of W11 added new Telemetry and unnecessary services, but that ones covered by WPD still working.

You are a happy person! I would banish the Secure Input and Safe Money add-ons, as well as the Kaspersky Add-on. I consider them unnecessary for my part. For me, KSOS and Endpoint are much more sympathetic solutions. But they are unnecessary and expensive for 3 machines.

 

[danb]

Overkill .

 

[harlan4096]

Yeah, probably overkill in browser add-ons, but currently trying different ones, and I won't keep all... in real-time, yeah -> KeyScrambler Free, but only used for browsers, so not much, and Sandboxie is not resident actually...

Did you try the following translator extension with Firefox, your primary browser?

TWP - Translate Web Pages – Get this Extension for 🦊 Firefox (en-US)

Download TWP - Translate Web Pages for Firefox. Translate your page in real time using Google or Yandex. It is not necessary to open new tabs. Now works with the NoScript Extension.

addons.mozilla.org

 

[harlan4096]

Hum no, but I don't use "Simple Translate" add-on to translate full pages, but to select specific text from a site and get a translation popup, so it's very direct, easy and fast.

 

[rashmi]

Ok. Check it out; you may prefer it over Simple Translate. It works like Chrome's built-in translator, selected text, and more.

Any artificial intelligence extensions in your favourite browser ?

 

[harlan4096]

No, I don't use any AI neither in W11 nor in browsers

The integrated translator FF feature still in beta, and not so flexible, almost no features...

I thought about it and joined the club.
I like KS and KSOS better than Home Editions.
There is no bullshit and it is more bouncy with KSOS and KES.

 

[harlan4096]

Yes, KSOS is a product that is among the Home and Business, but with orientation towards small businesses and without "some bloat" features from Home products.
