Basic Security NikosNx's Security Configuration

[NikosNx]

Hello again! Again, because I am Nikos751 and I needed to create a new account. Here is my configuration. I want a reliable and secure system so as the greek ancient philosopher Kleovoulos said, "Moderation is best".

Added Ublock Origin after a long time not using it because of a bigger attack surface with addons & replaced ZAM portable with NPE. I also specified that I have HIPS in EIS in Smart Mode. If I occasionally need a system backup I use AOMEI backupper. Thank you all.

Looks like a good config I would also say to add Windscribe VPN (great VPN; free version better than many others) like @LDogg said. 1Password is a great password manager that I used to use all the time until I had to have a password manager for my Chromebook for school, so great choice

Great addition.. Ublock is definitely a worth while tool. Last night i was throwing malicious URL's at CIS V11 Webfilter, and had to allow almost everyone of them through Ublock before the webfilter was able to react.

That's great! I didn't know uBlock was so good for malicious URLs
