For both of them an endpoint security is not needed, as all data manipulation and data access is done in specific AppVMs. >> Something like usual ...internet security >> software used in windows(antivirus >> antispam etc unified). Honestly I think that all those internet security suites don't offer additional safety. As they have to be integrated deeply into the OS to be secured against manipulation of the software itself, it is also likely that new security holes will be opened. Also people who think that a antivirus product will help them, forgett to use drive encryption, which will offer protection in case the device is lost or use bad passwords. Security is much more than antivirus. I am working in IT and don't use any internet security except on one windows laptop which is brought to customer and customer compliance policies force us to work with antivirus protection. On my own machines I have abandoned the use of additional "protection software" except the default protection from the OS itself. I haven't got a virus/trojan within years. All my customers who have been hit by virus and mostly crypto Trojans had antivirus protection running without offering any help. There are only two products which will offer the best protection: bra.in + TBYC* If you add Qubes and use ApoVMs wisely you will have a better protection than 95% of all users. *ThinkBeforeYouClick >> If not how for example >> payments are safe? Very easy: - Create an AppVM and use Plugins like noscript, https anywhere, adblockers etc. - set the Qubes firewall (sys-firewall) to block all traffic and use a whitelist only allowing access to the banking site. I am using this to work with 3 different banking accounts, sometimes you need to tweak a bit to know which other IPs are necessary so that the banking works. Another option could be to use a disposable VM. [799] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
