What is your PC's security setup?
#17
Operating System: Windows 10 Home (Laptop) / Professional (Tower) x64, always latest stable build
Antivirus: Tencent PC Manager Global w/ BD engine (always latest stable) @ custom settings
Show Content
Firewall: Sphinx Software Windows 10 Firewall control (Free version)
Antimalware: covered by Antivirus, however, for regular checkups, 2nd opinion scanners are used: Norton Power Eraser, HitmanPro (free), MalwareBytes Premium (no Realtime Protection applied, just on-demand scanning)
Sandbox: Shadow Defender (always latest stable)
Backup: Personal files are manually sbackupped to external HDDs, usually once a month or when created.
Virtual Machine: none, malware testing is performed on a contained system, protected by Shadow Defender. There is no personal data on the testing machine, no mail software in use.

As 2nd opinion scanners can be fooled by malware / do not spot every infection, because some rely on signatures, I also use Mister Group SystemExplorer, SysInternals AutoRuns and TCPView to spot suspicious activities on the system.
"We spend our time searching for security and hate it when we get it." (John Steinbeck)
