This is the new simple rig for my Panasonic Toughbook CF-52. The security is tight, every aspect covered from Phishing, Scripts, Ransomware, Malvertising and more. Please give me advice on anything I need to add. Thank for viewing.

If vivaldi had ' never remember history ' autoclean cookies on exit' you can use those features. Im not sure do i remember wrong.

Id appreciate if you take a look on slimjet, i know few people using it from MalwareTips but im bit of shy using it myself.

Only thing that comes in my mind, that you are using forticlient antivirus + auto-exploit am i right? Do anti-exploit work for vivaldi, or do you even need it?

I believe for Vivaldi they are a few bugs. For Comodo Ice Dragon I believe it works fairly well. I will be doing a test when I have configured my Toughbook correctly to my specs over the next weeks! Have been thinking about taking off Vivaldi as I'm having refresh problems with Scriptsafe.

.cool setup.consider HTTPS Everywhere too as an addon.
Thank you for the suggestion, but in 2018 it's redundant as most of the sites now rollout HTTPS as default. Which is why I won't be using it and keeping down the number of extensions I'm using or not needed.

If he use Forticlient & Netcraft and yet Scriptsafe he have far solid web protection. with this addon ssetup HTTPS is even useless.

However i dont se in info about any sandbox/izolation software for browser which should be nice security suplement

I have thought about Sandboxie for isolation of IceDragon, but I don't think it's needed as my browsing & downloading habits are logical. Only also download software or updates from official sites/sources :p

Hey @LDogg - you came back to the dark side with WD and H_C. Are you still running SysHardener, and if so, what settings? I ask because you'll have overlap, etc.. Also, because you have "Designated File Types" set to OFF, and you have no Enforcement, neither of which are default settings for Recommended SRPs. I don't know whether you intended these settings in H_C. I know when I first installed it, I hit a couple of toggles by mistake and later corrected settings. If you are going to use Designated File Types, you can add also: SETTINGCONTENT-MS & PUB extensions. Also you may show all of your changes in config. above. (y)

I am still running Syshardener. They were turned off by myself because I couldn't run any short cuts at the bottom of my screen. Settings above are changed on the Config for this thread. :p
