Thank you.

@Alexhousek Probably best to email @danb as @oldschool says though you could also try changing the mode to Autopilot and running the game in case your not seeing any alerts when the game is full screen. Might be worth checking for blocked CMD lines in the UI if that doesn't work.

App Review - AppGuard vs CyberLock

AppGuard and CyberLock are system reinforcement software. They will block unknown software (or suspicious behavior) to help your antivirus software. Please note: they do not replace your antivirus software! But they do work differently: AppGuard simply prohibits, while CyberLock goes further...

In malware tests, VoodooShield and any default-deny setup will perform well. As with any default-deny setup, VS is only for users with sufficient knowledge. Average users risk infection or blocked software/system services by blindly following alert recommendations.

Hey Guys,

Happy New Year!

Here is the latest version of CyberLock. There is a new feature named Smart Firewall on the Basic tab in settings, toward the top. You can use it to harden windows firewall rules, and at some point we are going to be doing some pretty cool things with it.

CyberLock 7.86

BTW, I have also been working on a new project that is not cybersecurity related at all, and it is almost ready. I guess you could call it a Desktop Enhancement software, and I built it because I was tired of the massive amounts of icons on my desktop, and also out of frustration of having to go back to the same 10 or so folders a thousand times a day, and having to drill down each time. It has been a lot of work (but very fun to work on) but maintaining will be super simple, so it should not distract me from our important projects. Anyway, I will send you guys a link hopefully within a week or so. It is a portable app, but there will be an installed version as well.

Thank you,

Dan

This project sounds like @alexandrud's Biniware Run.

Currently, what are the smart firewall's features?

I believe, from what can see, that it's just a set of block rules for Windows' firewall, that block Windows' components that should not need access. Essentially, it's about 120 firewall hardening block rules.

So much this!

It's just Windows Firewall Hardening by adding LOLbins to Windows Firewall, much like @Andy Ful 's FirewallHardening tool. See below example. It works along side of Comodo or other firewall that doesn't fully disable windows firewall.

That is true. But, from what I can tell, it goes beyond Andy Ful's FirewallHardening tool. I use his firewall hardening as well, but there are about 90 more blocking rules with this new CL hardening. That might not be good. That might not be bad. But the amount of rule, the restrictiveness, is different.

I've only gone with the Recommended and not done any real testing here but I'm glad for the feature

your experience is that new feature is not messing anything up? I may try CL 7.86 in VM first... (but I'm not paranoid )

It's been running perfectly fine for me.

Yeah, not causing any issue for me with Smart Firewall set to Recommended. It'll just block LOLBins that aren't supposed to connect out.

In my experience CL causes very few issues.

The new sideline development work of desktop enhancement sounds interesting will check it out once it's available.

For icons on my desktop I use Stardock Fences which does an excellent job or organising my desktop icons/folders/files.
For folder navigation I use Codesector DirectFolders this can be used to create jump points to folders from desktop or explorer.

Both of these products are very good but would be interested to review Dans new software.

I've been using CL aka VS for so long, my mind must blur when I look at settings, I installed 7.86 on win10 hardware and looking thru settings, I just do not find Smart Firewall. HELP!
