I'm Looking for Protection of Small Office ( 10 Windows System ).
Other Than Good Protection as Core Feature, I'm looking for some Solution that worked Mostly on automation.
The small number of pop-ups, and all Decision made by Security Solution itself.

-They Don't use any mail server.

*We Can't Use Norton-Mcafee-AVG-Bullgaurd and some other Here.

So if I were you, I'd use a regular antivirus that is cheap and can be used commercially. I would also suggest that there should be backups on servers (keyword: Samba with read-only) every hour, but that's up to you. Ransomware will have no chance.
Thanks for Suggestions!

stand alone AV is definity not enought i see every day copule malware samples not detected by anti-virus..
I preffer solid restriction with hips and izolator... dont forget to make backup.

Sandboxie is nice you configure once time and forget.
Good for browser and other document software, dunno how with graphic program i use PhotoShop with Sandboxie and it even auto detect my drivers from Wacom and auto added to compatibility list.

HIPS can be problem if your personel dont know how read alerts and dont understand myself system to take propetly action durning alert.

If you have office with copule computers i would go in endpoint secuirty and choose something like Sophos + AppGuard and VMware.
Which are totaly dedicated for this kinds.

They are not IT Expert.
Also They Don't have time to play with Security Software.

Bitdefender or Norton are probably your best install-and-forget programs.

But don't assume that you will be protected. Zero-day malware will get through. If your business entails opening email attachments on a local computer (as opposed to on a web interface like Gmail), you will be at risk. Because email attachments are a prime attack vector for zero-day malware.

Best small office security is to install a UTM/NGFW... Period.

Fortinet? If they lack funds and/or knowledge to setup and maintain Fortinet, go with Untangle perhaps. With Untangle you'll have zVelo web filtration, Snort IPS, Bit Defender+Clam scanning each inbound file. Then choose a NON-Bit Defender engine product to protect the endpoints. I'd probably roll with ESET or Kaspersky, but definitely not the CIA operated Trend Micro. :p

Coming from a security perspective I would vote for either Kaspersky or Bitdefender. These two suites are amazing in my opinion!

Having worked with Kaspersky over the past few years for a few thousand end users I would say you cannot go wrong with this software. The same can be said with Bitdefender.

Whatever you do please do not go after F-Secure! Wayyyyy too many false positives, slow, and the admin console isn't that great either.

Hope that helps you!
