norcarolinian's security config

[norcarolinian]

Always looking for new/improved configs....

 

[Winter Soldier]

Good setup, you can add Zemana Anti-Malware as on demad scanner and Macrium free to schedule the creation of system images useful in case of serious problems and deep infections.
Thanks for sharing

 

[JM Safe]

I agree with @Winter Soldier , having a backup solution in your config is always important.

Thanks for sharing.

 

[frogboy]

Agreed 100% with what @Winter Soldier suggests.

Aren't you suppose to recommend a system image backup like Macrium or Aomei?

 

[ZeroDay]

Nice config.

 

[BugCode]

Looks good indeed, like guru's above suggest, first security solution is YOU then comes BackUp then start to consider security "arsenal" and you have very good. Zemana & NPE on demand and consider like Noscript/Umatrix,Scriptsafe or something.

Thanks for sharing, your good!

Oops agreed I would suggest a backup solution such as Macrium Reflect or Aomei Backupper both have a free and reliable version for you.

You're on Windows 10 so IMHO Avira is obsolete as your combination of CFW and VS is powerful enough to catch almost anything and built-in Windows Defender is quite good AV so Avira is just a waste of resources.
Second thing are the on demand scanners - there are some really good ones available for free: Zemana Anti-Malware, Emsisoft Emergency Kit, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. HitmanPro is also a top notch but only scanning is free - removal of the threats needs at least trial license and after a trial period you'll need to buy a key to use it.
You're protected pretty well with CFW and VS but still backup is a must as there are no tools or suites which can guarantee you 100% security

Thanks ofr sharing your config with us , looks nice! I would like to suggest to ad privacybadger as an extension on both of your browsers....furthermore if you configure cfw 10 according to @ cruelsister settings , it will make voodooshield redunant imho

 

[S3cur1ty 3nthu5145t]

Enable Smart screen for system wide, and consider removing VS as it is not needed with CFW and Avira. If you do not keep system image back ups, at least consider using Microsoft Media creation tool to place a bootable version of the operating system on a flash drive for the rare cases of either a complete wipe or even repairs.

Welcome, and make yourself at home,
Like so many have said, in a pinch software like Macrium can be a god send.
Thanks for sharing.
PS: I was born in Fla. But moved to Charlotte when I was 16 I call it home, nice to see another Carolinian here in MT
I live in Missouri now with my wife, but the Carolinas are home.

 

[ravi prakash saini]

from my side , you should also get shadow defender. as per your configuration you are not testing malware since you are on MT sooner or later you are going to have itch for it

 

[Xsjx]

Good setup!

 

[Exterminator]

Implement some type of system backup solution.
Consider an on demand scanner(s).
Thanks for sharing your config

 

[norcarolinian]

Thanks for the feedback everyone! I have added Macrium and Emsisoft Emergency Kit.
