According to WiseVector they can both run together.

I see. What I mean is that we need confirmation of compatibility from both sides, namely WV and Kaspersky, before we can conclude that WV and KIS can be used together, because I believe WV didn't inspect KIS's code and threat detection rules and vice versa.According to WiseVector they can both run together.

I have found no issues with the dumb detection routines as for in the wild malware there were samples caught by one and allowed by others but overall leading to additive protection. But the AI component of WV still impresses, and along with Comodo's auto-sandbox true zero day malware really...
I highly doubt that Kaspersky would test WiseVector for compatibility. Not that it matters too much. For two products to be compatible, you only need one of them to support being installed alongside other antiviruses, not both of them. If both products were required to be compatible with other antiviruses, then this feature would be of little use, as there are very few antiviruses which have been designed to run alongside other products.
From Kaspersky's viewpoint, you definitely shouldn’t run multiple AVs at the same time. (Running More Than One Antivirus Program)
That's true for the vast majority of antiviruses, because they are not designed to work alongside another antivirus. Doing so can sometimes cause serious problems and in worst case scenarios you'll get a BSOD when Windows boots, or Windows will boot, but you will get random BSODs when Windows is running. This can be a problem too if you uninstall one antivirus and then install another one. Because, sometimes there will be drivers from the first antivirus which the uninstaller did not remove and still get loaded, which can cause some of the same problems you would experience if you had not removed the first antivirus before installing the second one.

I don't think this means WV has been designed to run alongside other AVs. It is not a guarantee. It just means, based on other users' experiences, running WV and KIS together has worked out well so far. But who knows what will happen if your computer is infected during the next malware outbreak...

This piece of FAQ highlights WV's stability and compatability. Still, it does not imply WV is designed to work with other AVs. On the country, it says it is OK but not recommended to use other AVs alongside WV.WiseVector StopX FAQ

Hi all Wisevector has posted some Infos and screenshots When our new version with manually hips mode is released, I think there is no need to have another HIPS working alongside WVSX. Please refer to the screenshots of our next release below. https://ibb.co/yX7y4Px https://ibb.co/80J7nNw...

Interesting article from 2015. So BD must be useless then I guess,1-King of Bug
2-King of Fps
3-Poor in Customer Support
4-Very Weak in their data protection (they leave password & usernames of its customers Unencrypted )

HmmInteresting article from 2015. So BD must be useless then I guess,
I have another more recent article about a different AV company.
Guess Kaspersky must also be rubbish then.Warning: A Security Flaw In Kaspersky AntiVirus Lets Hackers Spy Users Online, Millions At Risk
Atherton Research's Principal Analyst and Futurist Jeb Su weighs in on a major security flaw in Kaspersky Lab's antivirus software that let malicious hackers track and attack its users while browsing the Web.
I could go on about all AV companies like this. Should we bash Avast?
Avast Scandal: Why We Stopped Recommending Avast & AVG
Our readers have been messaging us and asking why we’re still ranking Avast and AVG on our website, despite them being caught up in a serious scandal. Well, aftwww.safetydetectives.com
If you have something recent from 2021 please share it. Maybe a recent test with BD having over 100 FP?
maybe 50FP? How much is does take to be the KIng of FPs? I think you confusing BD with Panda AV.
) ( I have no cost for NSA Tools) they are really bad guys!
I am using BIS and BTS for several years now on 3 Desktop PCs and 4 Family Laptops.about King of FPs its very famous you may search in whole MT forum about it
Good chance it seems they work well for youI am using BIS and BTS for several years now on 3 Desktop PCs and 4 Family Laptops.
No bugs nor FP's. Whats posted on MT wont change my opinion.
Has I do understand I may have not had issues but others may have. It does go both ways.
Its a good thing that most AV offer Trials 30-60-90 days.Good chance it seems they work well for you
If it was not designed to work with other antiviruses you would see issues like BSODs or Windows crashing. In addition to that, since it doesn't yet register as an antivirus in Windows Security Center, Microsoft Defender does not get disabled when you install WiseVector. As a result, for now, I use it together with another antivirus, as I don't want to use Microsoft Defender. You need to do that, or use a tool like Defender Control, to disable MD if you want to use WiseVector on its own. The problem I've found with Defender Control, is that in time, Windows decides to enabled Microsoft Defender again. By using a second antivirus, I avoid that issue,
Incompatibility can lead to BSOD and crashes in the worst-case scenario and the absence of these two signs does not rule out the possibility of incompatibility between two AVs. The most common signs of incompatibility are system slowdown (daily use) and threat removal inefficiency/failure (when attacked by malware).
WiseVector said on KaFan (a Chinese cybersecurity forum) that they are working hard to get WV registered in WSC. Due to a lack of funds, this process is not very smooth. But this shows, once again, WV is not designed to work alongside other AVs. WV should be considered a stand-alone antivirus that offers comprehensive protection.
In this case, Kaspersky is not a VERY light antivirus, because it has System Watcher component. Panda and ESET are all light AVs. ESET, with HIPS disabled, is a much better choice than Kaspersky if you still want to combine WV with a leading AV.
