Welldone's Security Setup

[Welldone]

Have your say on my security setup.

Nice decent config. Not sure about running Shadow Defender and Sandboxie at the same time though, but I'm sure other members here will let you know.

Here though are some of my recommendations.

Browsers Plugins :
This are a few plugins that will make your live more easy and comfortable:

• Add HTTPS Everywhere
• Add No Script
• Add WOT

---

On-Demand scanners :

• Add Hitman Pro
• add MalwareBytes

Will it be OK to add CFW to my setup?Which version should i use 5.12 or 5.10?I don't want to use version 6 since i already have SBIE and SD for Virtualisation.

wise choices, in fact he use light virtualization and rollback over detection & proactivity, this config is light.

 

[Deleted member 178]

if you use actively SD & SBIE , CFW will be useless since you can negate any possible changes/infections; but to answer your question, use v5.12

Definitely lighter than yours

yes, in fact it is similar as mine without EIS and WSA, Bo and Earth will surely appreciate it

Well done Welldone, that's a well done config

 

[Welldone]

Do you whitelist certain websites in Noscript outside sandboxie?(or)Do you temporarily whitelist certain websites inside Sandbox while browsing?(or)Do you allow direct access to some file or folder to maintain whitelists?Which is the best option considering security as the primary reason?Please mention direct access settings if you use Noscript.

 

[Welldone]

Which DNS service is better for security?Norton/Comodo/OpenDNS/Any other DNS service you recommend

 

[Plexx]

Considering OP is on Windows 7, CFW 5.10 or 5.12 won't really make much difference.

When I first read the config, I had a stripped down dejavu of another config (without the colors).

My only question really is: Do you really need SD and Sandboxie running together? How is your SD configured?

Also, what are your browsing and computer needs (i.e: surf, download stuff, gaming (offline or online) etc)?

Nonetheless a barebones secured config. An approach not everyone would do due to the knowledge and care required, as well as it doesn't use the traditional approach of having an AV.

I download a lot.I have set SD to always have Data Partition in Shadow Mode.When i insert flash drives or browse some risky websites i enter Shadow mode for the System partition.When i download softwares,i upload to VirusTotal and check it.I have my download folders excluded from SD and forced folders-a separate sandbox for it.Only offline gaming.

While you are in a sandbox browsing it will not matter if you "temp" allow them or "Whitelist" as the changes will be undone either way when you close and or clear the sandbox. Outside the sandbox, i personally use the "temp" allow just for the site itself, and then what other executable web content needed to run the page. Some may find that to be an inconvenience and just whitelist the sites then add what they need as they go.


This is a nice light config.

With your 9,000% guarantee , you should not require a sandbox, unless of course replacing Ccleaner was your goal
