@Anti-Malware Reviewer: That's depend on you, as long there should be no trouble upon the configuration. Boring? Why not test those software on VM against those malware hub samples.

That will entertain you a lot because CIS has a lot settings to mess around in order to achieve " A PERFECT PREVENTION AND LOCK DOWN".

Nice update.
Note CIS has some bugs/glitches here and there (they mostly affect usability/functionality, not security) so make sure you export your configuration often in case CIS messes it up somehow (has never happened to me, but apparently it can happen, as it was reported by many CIS users).
Other than that, happy tweaking!
What do you mean 'export your configuration'?Nice update.

It's an option you can find in Advanced Settings -> General Settings -> Configuration.

COMODO Proactive Security is the most secure configuration. The first thing you should do before you start tweaking anything is to activate it as your base security config, and then you can make any desired changes to the settings. Any changes you make to the settings are saved in the currently Active configuration.
So once you've made your desired changes, return to the same settings screen and Export "Proactive Security" which has saved all those changes. If something ever goes wrong, import the backup configuration file which you previously exported.

Generally, in "Proactive Security", the predefined policies, rules and protected object groups across the Firewall, Auto-Sanbox and HIPS components, are vastly stricter.
For more information check here: Comodo Preset Configurations, Firewall Security | Comodo Internet Security v7.0
The COMODO Internet Security Help Guide is your best resource for CIS-related information.
NOTE: Latest version is v8.2, at the moment. Although some articles are written for previous versions, they should also apply to the current version.
For someone who reviews software, I would like to point out that checking the Product Help files is especially time-saving for everyone involved.

Great update. MS Edge is not yet matured as a piece of software, in my opinion, and Chromodo is more than a decent browser.
Try out the Bitdefender TrafficLight extension for Chromodo, you will have a very powerful layer of website protection in your browser. If you feel that it is too much, tou may remove Bitdefender TrafficLight and only keep uBlock Origin which is more than enough.
Crystal Security is a very nice piece of software, and having an extra on-demand scanner is always good! Great addition.

Not unless you run applications like JDownloader or Minecraft, and probably some webpages here and there require it.
Generally, though, it is not necessary.

Would you ever consider running HitmanPro.Alert instead of Malwarbytes Anti-Exploit? It has more add-on features and is pretty light

You can try out HitmanPro.Alert for 30 days and disable Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit for a while. That's what I did when I switched overYes but I've already paid for MBAE
