    win 7 64
    comodo d+free
    sandboxie free
    I dont think i need anything more. Nothing seems to get by sandboxie, so maybe cis is overkill. I just dont want to be changeing apps as often as i change my undies. So until they conflict or something gets through, thats it.:eek: :)

    Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit

    OS Internals (no extra overhead or cost)
    • Safe Admin Tweaks [MANUAL] (UAC Hardened, Autorun and Autoplay disabled.)
    • Software Restriction Policy (Disallowed: Set as default)
    • Windows Firewall setup 2-way [IN/OUTBOUND: Block] (Improved via Baseline Security Templates)
    Realtime protection
    Tool:
    1. ProcessExplorer
    2. Microsoft Security Compliance Manager 1.0 (for downloading Baseline Security Templates)
    3. MS LocalGPO (for applying Baseline Security templates) :
      Baseline Security Template: (Merged IE8SSLFUser -> IE8SSLFComputer -> Win7SSLFUser -> Win7SSLFDesktop : Allow Legacy Apps to run, Allow Administrators Group to debug programs to fix compatibility with EMET)
    4. EMET 2 (Opt-out, Opt-in, Opt-in)
    5. CCleaner


    Setup:

    1. Google Chrome [Set as Default Browser but NOT ALLOWED to run] ( --safe-plugins | Jailed by GesWall| Low Integrity | click-to-play plugin | SRP Restricted | EMET ) explained here.
    2. Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 12 [For regular and banking] (Not Isolated by GesWall | EMET | tweaked settings for privacy | Sandboxied )

      I have 2 Firefox shortcut to run Firefox in 2 different Sandbox (one for regular browsing and another one for banking)

      • Regular Sandbox (NoScript/Adblock Plus/Adobe Flash installed here together with my games and messenger)
      • Banking Sandbox (Only Firefox allowed to run and access Internet / No Add-ons installed )

        Since I'm using Sandboxie FREE I cant use two sandboxes at a time. I had to terminate all programs from running from Regular Sandbox in able to use Banking Sandbox vice versa. :thumb:

    3. All Download directories is in separate partition with low rights and have a deny ACL to prevent low rights processes executing in low rights container and is untrusted by Geswall
      (downloaded low rights processes can't execute in medium / high rights directories)
    4. IE8 Jailed by GesWall.
    5. ClearCloud DNS



    Maybe I can add Prevx SafeOnline and allow screen readers on my Regular Sandbox so that Prevx SOL can protect my browser during regular browsing.
    Prevx Malware detection is a plus.

    or maybe add Returnil System Safe FREE to make me a bit more paranoid. :D

    Konata,

    There's no way your running Geswall and Sandboxie together on the same system.

    They can work perfectly :cool: :thumb:

    EDIT: Just don't isolate programs with Geswall that you want to run inside Sandboxie

    I'm not really sure... but I installed Chrome so that Firefox / Internet Explorer won't be my default browser that will open .HTML shortcuts
    (if they did they wont be sandboxed/geswalled)


    because I made Geswall NOT to isolate Firefox and IE to allow them to run in Sandboxie

    and as you know I'm using Sandboxie FREE which cannot FORCE browsers to RUN in Sandboxie too.


    I launch Firefox sandboxed with these 2 shortcuts

    Regular Session:
    Code:
    "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" /box:Gaming  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 12\firefox.exe
    Banking Session:
    Code:
    "C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" /box:Banking  C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 12\firefox.exe

    (Firefox installed in the OS is untouched) ^^

    I'm using the setup linked in my SIGNATURE below for Windows security.

    I have Linux Mint (dualboot) on the same PC. Currently in stock settings. Fully Updated.

    any recommended software? o_O

    Uninstalled Comodo firewall. Installed Outpost Security Suite free to see if it gets along with Geswall mainly out of curiosity although Comodo firewall was compatible with Geswall.
