Default Re: What is your security setup these days?

Firewall
Behind Router, WIndows 7 (Norton DNS on router) plus Windows Firewall both inbound and outbound

Windows build in protection
Running limited User. Moved Mail folder, Download Folder and Music Folder (WMP) to a "Anti_Drive_by" folder, which I added a DENY for EVERYONE to "Traverse Folder/Execute FIle" access control list (right click folder, choose Security tab, add user Everyone).

Active Real Time protection
EMET 2.1 (mail, PDF, browser, wmp) + Avast file shield (only).

2x Sandboxed Browsing
I normally browse with Chrome internal low rights/untrusted sandbox only. When surfing to darker corners of the internet, I add an extra virtualisation sandbox with Sandboxie Free (only allow files to download dir and access to bookmarks). Thx Tzuk for taking critism seriously (SBIE now respects Chrome low rights container).

I think I may have you confused with another member, but haven't you developed an AV and other security products yourself.....And if you have (as I said, it may not be you) why aren't they in your list?

Hi,

I actually waited this question .

Now i can answer to this:

I am developing my program on better programming language and
when it is completed (first public beta on better programming language) then i will start to use it.
I started partnership with one Russian company and their team help me with testing, suggestions, marketing etc. This all take some time to release next version of my program.

Why i don´t use available beta at the moment is because there is CPU usage (a little high) and this is fixed in newer release.

When CPU usage bug is fixed then i will start to
use my own program again

Hope you understand my answer.

Regards,
Kardo

Hi,

As i said, i´ll try to be transparent:

First thing i can tell is that my partner (Russian company) is Essential Data Tools. My product is in future available from their website: http://www.essentialdatatools.com/

This company operate from year 1996 and they develop their own backup, recovery etc...products. Their team already tested one of my beta product.
I also have to make some lift on program GUI to make my program similar with their products but i also keep classic (windows) style (GUI theme is optional).

Kardo
