[QUOTE="SpyNetGirl, post: 1022612, member: 98858"] Hi, pleased to meet you too, thank you :3 That site seems like the typical 3rd party blog post like hundreds of others on the Internet, first time seeing this one though. my GitHub repo basically indexes everything that Microsoft already made publicly available, links to them, uses PowerShell to automate applying them. absolutely no 3rd party or bias or bad info. I almost use no screenshot because UI elements change from time to time and I don't want to keep track of every image I upload in there and update them or risk having out of date info. what I do however is keeping the actual info always up to date and fully tested, on both insider and stable Windows builds. So I'd suggest using Bing instead like I do ^^ Thank you ^^ Yes of course, there are lots of info to read and took me a lot of time to gather them too, so I understand, and I totally respect your decision of using Norton, but I believe you could save money by, as you said, taking your time, read through the repository and adapt the security measures already provided for free to us Windows users. after all, 3rd party AV vendors all want us to believe we need their products otherwise we are in a constant danger :) Bitlocker, when set up using the script in the repository, can make it impossible for someone who has extended physical access to your device and has lots of skills, to access your data. if you believe your threat model doesn't include that and there isn't any possibility of someone stealing your device at all, then you can skip it ^^ [/QUOTE]
