Is the improved performance of Microsoft Defender a myth? Should we necessarily be using a 3rd party AV?

[QUOTE="wat0114, post: 969013, member: 91306"] Agreed, but (and I hope I'm not mistaken on this) the OSA alerts or even the one before with SRP could allow one to make an informed decision before allowing it to run the .BAT->[I]asddddd.exe [/I]payload. Essentially i'm not relying only on AV and my brain to prevent the threat. But again, my main point was an attempt to illustrate that ring 0 is a non factor if the malware isn't allowed to launch. [b]Edit[/b] there's also an agenda to indirectly provide some "feedback" for the second question of the thread title: Should we necessarily be using a 3rd party AV? [/QUOTE]
