[QUOTE="Victor M, post: 1062105, member: 96560"] There is something to be said about automatic remdiation, (eg anti-malware) they cannot be 100% relied upon. The latest greatest tech can protect you well enough for a while, perhaps only a short while, and before long you will have to go looking again and spending money. But if you learn how to Monitor your systems for abnormal events, like with a SIEM and maybe an EDR, then your spent money will run a bit longer. And you don't have to spend a lot on name brands like Splunk, there are open source ones. Plus if you harden your systems manually yourself, you will know and understand what attack surface is left over, and you can devote defenses towards guarding those left over openings. And before you rest and gloat over what you have done to secure your systems, check with a known security framework like CIS or PCI-DSS to cover yourself, they serve as guiding posts lest you miss something. You may think that's just for organizations, but who lives in a one PC home nowadays. When you are interested in security, you might as well install agents on all PCs and guard your entire family with the SIEM. When you are responsible for not just yourself, you'll gain more holistic security experience, other than just running after anti-evasion technology. And you will be encountering a wall called a budget :) [/QUOTE]
