[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 960969, member: 32260"] Comparing two security products is a very complex task. :) So, let's limit ourselves to the protection of home users. I think that I could defend the below standpoint: [LIST] [*]When we compare free products, then there is no real difference (in protection) between Defender (with Edge) and Kaspersky. [*]On Windows 10 (also Home editions), one can tweak Defender free (for example via ConfigureDefender HIGH or MAX settings) to get much of Kaspersky paid (KIS), but this will increase the number of false positives. [*]One can tweak Kaspersky paid (KIS + [USER=36043]@harlan4096[/USER] settings) to be stronger than Defender with ConfigureDefender MAX settings. [*]Advanced home users can tweak Windows 10 and Defender free to get a similar level of protection as tweaked Kaspersky paid, with a similar false positives rate. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
