Just to be safe, I run full scans with “Microsoft Defender”, “Start Emergency Kit Scanner”, and “Malwarebytes” on an irregular basis. In my use case, I have not had any malware or other problems with the above techniques. “Unchecky” is useful for adware protection.
I use “ClearURLs” and “LocalCDN” to prevent unauthorized redirects, “uBlock Origin” to block JavaScript, and “VoodooShield” to lock down the system and block (control) all executable programs.Īnything that requires downloading must be from the official site, and I always check the “GPG Signature” and the hash value. For unknown sites, I check site trustworthiness with “IndicateTLS”, “Flagfox”, and “IP Address and Domain Information”. I do not click on the URL, but check it with a tooltip (Popup ALT Attribute). Regardless of sites that are untrustworthy (cannot prove trustworthiness). I stopped relying on “Anti-Virus Solutions” two years ago.īased on many years of skill, most of the risks can be prevented by avoiding potential hazards and disabling JavaScript. > Now You: which security solutions do you use to protect your devices? Antivirus programs may not always detect inactive malware samples, but they may recognize them when they are active this explains the higher percentage of the protection rates in the table.Īvast and AVG, the latter is owned by Avast, scored 99.5% and 99.98% respectively, McAfee got 99.3% and 99.97% detection and protection rates, and G Data 98.6% and 99.99%. The default Windows security solution detected 98.8% of all threats and had a protection rate of 99.96%, good test results but not the best result of all tested products.ĪV Comparatives switched from reporting detection ratings to reporting detection and protection ratings for all tested products. Microsoft Defender fared better on Internet-connected devices. Many antivirus solutions detected over 90% on offline devices. Bitdefender and Total Defense Essential Antivirus, the latter uses Bitdefender's engine, detected 97.8% of all threats in tests. The remaining 14 antivirus solutions offer better offline detection rates according to the test.
