What antivirus I put on

I don’t know if you heard a news from a few days ago where EU said Kaspersky antivirus was’ confirmed as malicious’. You can read a great analysis of the news in the blog Eleven Paths. The point is, This antivirus is one of the most popular within companies, so this has raised the title question of this entry: What antivirus do I wear?

For those who have not done click in the link I have put before you, it should be noted that in Kaspersky antivirus has not been detected hidden malware that is able to leave us the printer without ink, make the statement of Finance go out to pay us or send our personal photos to the Putin government (Kaspersky is a Russian company)… in fact, The statement of ‘malicious’ in this case is by simple caution as it seems that, lately, everything coming from Russia is bad… the Russians interfere in the voting… the Russians have put Trump in power… and they have eliminated us

The World Cup!

There’s really nothing suspicious about Kaspersky’s antivirus beyond its origin, it’s one of the best antivirus for years and they’ve had the best laboratory of malware which has identified and analysed much of the malware that then detect other antivirus manufacturers, so if your company is relying on Kaspersky… you can continue to do so unless you have some internal directive that will prevent you (there are organisations that deal with EU secret information that must take it away yes or yes). But of course… it’s that the antivirus has access to everything! To your documents (which may or may not be important), to the

documents from your server, to the ultrasonic planes of the new piece that the R & D & i laboratory is developing or to the MS Project where the phases of the new service you are going to deploy to unblock the competition are marked, so the antivirus must be hygienic and you have to be able to trust it. Can you currently trust Kaspersky? It seems so..

And if I don’t… what antivirus do I wear?

First of all you must think if you are going to pay for your antivirus or if you prefer a free one. Yeah, I know if there’s a free one… why are we gonna pay? I am one of those who think that even if something is free you always have to reward the work of developers in some way (or bloggers like me… have I ever told you that you can make me donations on Bitcoins?), but still, in the case of antivirus, the difference is basically in the support. Free antivirus is updated with a few hours behind payment, which can be more than enough for an order

r that you have at home or for non-critical environments… but it’s better for your company to have one in payment. In addition there is the issue of support: with a payment antivirus with your support contract you can call the technical service in case you have any problems or a virus that should not have been found, in any case you would have a professional support willing to help you with free antivirus you do not have (or at least not with the same conditions of service).

Okay… but what antivirus do I wear?

I understand, what you’re looking for is directly a link So I’ll give you my opinion and recommend three pay and three free… it’s just my opinion, huh? You should do your own analysis to see each other’s functionalities and see which one you’re most interested in. All antivirus manufacturers recognize that today it is impossible to detect everything except for Panda’s, who keep saying they detect everything… because they’re from Bilbao and they’re like this.

Avast (that of the famous lady who says’ Her BASE OF VIRUS HAS BEEN ACTUALIZED ‘and gives a fright that for what)

And remember that not for having an antivirus you can delegate to it all the security of your computer and neglect your precautions, an antivirus will get you out of some virus infections, malware and ransomwarebut you should keep your computer up to date, not connect to suspicious networks and, of course, use common sense before double click in a file that has come to you by email and that you have no idea where it comes from.
