Pool is about your current Windows 10 setup. Since the pool allows multiple selection please either select if it is a work or gaming PC.

Thank you!

I tried this but it does nothing, just set the endpoint security rules, like strong password etc.. but it cannot prevent that you download bad stuff or open phishing page, I wrote them too asking to confirm this and then I removed and ended the trial, did I miss something?


I forgot KIS in the list! I though VDS and OSA are the same thing, in what they differ? Pro/cons?

Sorry can't help you with that.
Symantec Endpoint Protection is configured by the IT department in my company.
It's just there for me on my work laptop and works there like any AV.

What is the difference between Hard Configurator and SysHardener?


and is it enough to protect from possible threats?


I tried this but could not understand its purpose, many non HTTPS websites trigger the usual yellow warning, what is the point of blocking non HTTPS websites ?

SysHardner "only" hardens Windows settings to mitigate cybersecurity threats.
Hard Configurator does more and is default-deny protection.
Probably others can explain better...
Have a look at their websites for more information:

Adding to what @Gandalf_The_Grey said: Hard_Configurator's unique contribution to security is that it activates the native Windows Software Restriction Policies, and provides an easy way to configure them. They are very powerful and can be used both in default-allow and in default-deny configurations.

Like I said others can explain better
And don't forget the great support here from the creator of Hard Configurator: @Andy Ful

so I want to use less software as much as possible.

what software did you choose for security?

 

[show-Zi]

what software did you choose for security?

The main pcs used are emisi and cfw.
Older pcs use WD and Windows firewalls.

The software for adjusting the settings is used fluidly, but there is nothing currently installed.

 

[camo7782]

The main pcs used are emisi and cfw.

are you using CS setup?

 

[show-Zi]

are you using CS setup?

I have made some changes based on the CS settings. fw is a block other than the one permitted individually.

 

[camo7782]

fw is a block other than the one permitted individually.

what do you mean? not using the sandbox?

 

[show-Zi]

I'm sorry. Sandbox is applied in cs setting. When using online software without a signature, it's a little cumbersome.
It means that fw is not in safe mode.
