Zero Trust (Solution Vote)

[Sandbox Breaker - DFIR]

Hi All,

Which ZERO Trust Solution are you fond of?

Let's the discussions begin!

 

[enaph]

Voted for VS as I was using it on my Windows laptop back in the days and it has always served me well plus the developer is quite active here and he listens to users suggestions.

Voted for VS

Same here. Simple and effective.

I couldn't vote for H_C since I'm on the latest W11 build.

Kindly also mention which one is least heavy on system or is good for old system.

Same here. It never disappointed me. Works great.

My vote goes to the H_C/Hard Configurator that works from Windows vista to W10

 

[outlawxtorn]

Another for VS here.

 

[Digmor Crusher]

Of the ones I have used I would vote for VS.

H_C (or Simple Windows Hardening) or VS. Former has no impact and the latter is light as a feather.

VS for me. I like to have trusted code only run. Human and AI verified!

I use three layers of whitelist execution approaches all from Microsoft build in on my Windows10 Pro

1. For all folders and all users: Microsoft Defender on MAX (using cloud whitelist)
2. For all users in user folders: WDAC allowing only Microsoft signed plus Syncback free signed
3. For standard users in user folders: SRP deny execute (always running SUA)

Additionally the Protected Folders option is a disk acces whitelist protecting all user folders.

I vote for the Voodoo magic. Last month I tested it agains some nasty malware and ransomware. After the test the machine was clean and the testdata was safe. I also tested the ML function (VM disconnected from the network). It blocked nearly all samples.

 

[wasi00]

VS free is also better option or for zero trust paid version is needed?

VS free is also better option or for zero trust paid version is needed?

VoodooShield free no longer exists. Only a free trial period of 15 days.

Thank you everyone, I appreciate your insights and opinions, it's one of the things that keeps VS going . BTW, we are upgrading our servers and they will be ready soon, so WLC and other features will be even faster soon!

Voodooshield for sure is excellent & light (long-time user); however, I'm currently "evaluating" AppGuard v6.7 and its Activity Log is informative (to me) about what is going on under the hood. I am told that VS & AG can run together without conflict, but goal is to securely minimize. For me, VS is first pick set it and forget it, or seemed that way as my understanding developed along with using VS over the years. AG for me is more of a learning experience, or perhaps harder to learn, or rather more "stuff" to learn...?? But learning is a good thing.

I use Windows10 and vote for H_C/Hard Configurator and it has never let me down so far and the developer of this software deserves great credit.
however, VS is also a very good and noteworthy program and the programmer of this software is active and I really appreciate his work.
but my vote is H_C because I've been using it for quite a long time and I don't have any problem with it.

Hard_Configurator (Recommended Settings), FirewallHardening (Recommended H_C, LolBins), ConfigureDenender (Max).

When you are on Windows 10 or on Windows 11 with SAC disabled, Simple Windows Hardening is an excellent addendum to VoodooShield (and SWH is set and forget). VoodooShield is excellent against and executables and good against scripts, using SWH blocks scripts in user folders, making them a great combo.
