What is your security setup these days?

Sandboxie with Prevx and Mamutu are pretty light on my computer. As far as how secure that combination is, all I know is that even with all the browsing and downloading that I do, there haven't been any infections detected in scans with Hitman Pro and MBAM.

 

Uninstalled KIS 2012, was hogging PC while gaming.
Although i do accept it was because every single thing in it was maxed out just for fun

Gotta get my EAM licenses soon. 3 EAM and 1 OA Weeew

 

trying F-Secure AV and am really impressed.

 

Windows x32 Ultimate dual core E5200 @ 3,0Ghz 2GB RAM, 140 MB/s 1TB drive plus internal backup drive (old 250 GB drive)

UAC (changes from default)
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
- "ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin" set to 2 (prompt for consent)
- "EnableInstallerDetection" set to 0 (off) does not elevate programs without manifest based on installer recognition from user space (unsafe places)
- "ValidateAdminCodeSignatures" set to 1 (on) only elevate signed programs

Selective Deny Execute to prevent drive by infection
Added a deny execute for everyone for through right click properties security tab for (see pic)
- data partition
- download directory

Added the 1806 trick to add a deny execute for downloaded executables
(see https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1852024&postcount=5)


Contain rights of internet facing software in Medium=basic or Low=protected
- added explicit Mandatory Medium rights with no write up/execute up (through hcml http://www.minasi.com/apps/) for mail and windows media player,, to prevent elevation requests
- using chromium (low rights tabs) which is unsigned so will never elevate, with --safe-plugins and --incognito switches

Secure autostarts in HKEY_CURRENT_USER
- all autostarts set to mandatory HIGH (no inherit, no write up) with regil, because of High rights, all basic user or protected mode processes (Medium or Low rights) are not allowed to change, but admin (High rights) is allowed to do so.

Good Morning ! Real-Time-Avast I.S.-Prevx 3.0 & Safe-On Line-Hitman Pro-Zemana Anti-Key-Logger-Secunia PSI-OS/Windows 7-Primary Browsers-Opera and Google Chrome...all Apps Latest Updated Versions. Sincerely...Securon

 

Looks like you had a lot of fun

 

well, after some debate, I renewed wth Eset. Going stay with them until 1-1-2014

 

lol Can I have your Panda (or avast!) license then?

 

Trying Google DNS.
I seem to be alternating between Norton DNS, Comodo Secure DNS and now Google DNS.
I used to have ClearCloud in that mix, but since they are discontinuing the service, I moved on.

 

Nothing more than my signature...

 

I've been using eset nod32 v. 5 (hips disabled) + outpost firewall pro 7.5 for 3 weeks now.

But, yesterday I came back to kaspersky internet security 2012 but changed it back to that combo. I must honestly say: kaspersky is really bad product. Well that's only my opinion about it.
With kaspersky, I have slow system, slow windows startup, slow scannings, eats lots of ram (more than nod32+outpost) etc etc etc. I've been kaspersky fanboy for a very long time but finally I've seen the light! Thank god for that! There is way better products out there.

With nod32 and outpost I'm using malwarebytes free and admuncher.

System feels light and secured! This is the setup I've been looking for and finally I've found it.

 

trjam good choice man nod antivirus is very good program

 

yes indeed

 

i tried it like 2 months ago and it is nice but the hips is very alerting

 

Yeah, i have never experienced lag while gaming with EAM, let alone a crappy one like Team Fortress 2

 

Noob i know KIS is heavey but I am lil interested to know its resource usage.. I believe I dont have the resource available to even test it...let me know my friend u got any screenies available?

 

buddy boi are u using chrome or firefox?

 

Already uninstalled KIS 2012 but if you want i can definitely test it again.

 

Updated to include my new scanners + the fact that I've increased my java sandboxing to Limited from Partially Limited. It seems to still be working for the few sites that I use java for.

 

Do you swear to stay with ESET ?

 

of course I, dont.

 

I'm using Chrome buddy boi. I haven't used Firefox for a long while, don't like it

Hahaha
