Custom backups include:
Weekly (deferential) to external hard drive.
On system shut down/reboot (incremental) to mirrored SSD’s

I call this a hybrid because I am using a signature-less AI based and signature base AV's simultaneously which was not my original intention.

I wanted to migrate to a signature-less AI based configuration and I admit was envious of Cyberghost's, I bought a Cylance Protect license to test it out. I planned to run it with Hitman Pro Alert and Hiemdal Pro

However after running it for a while and having virtually no user control in Cylance's dashboard, I can't even white list or wave apps and not hearing back from Malware Managed where I bought it for elevated rights to do so even after e-mailing their support multiple times. Then finding when I run the ELCAR tests here Feature Settings Check for Desktop Solutions » AMTSO it only stops #4 and #6, and does nothing here Test Malware! I figured I better put something underneath it to be safe.

I wanted to use Emsisoft but half my starting apps would not load, then I tried Sophos Home but the virus scanner would not scan anything, just sit there. Then I tried ESET NOD32 and it has been working flawlessly with Cylance.

Now what I have is overkill but at least runs smooth on my system.
