Hello



I would like harden Webroot to prevent intrusion and hacking. What are the

initial settings that I must do?



Our network was recently hacked because a user surfed a website that was

infected with malwares. So we are very cautious now and we have replaced

our Malwarebytes AV with Webroot. We are new to setting webroot

Thanks in advance
Hello,



Default install is perfectly fine and very safe but you can raise the Heuristics to Max but it could cause False Positives so you can read more here from the UserGuide: https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#SettingPreferences/AdjustingHeuristics.htm%3FTocPath%3DSetting%2520Preferences%7C_____3



And note that WSA has a Smart Firewall and will work with your ZoneAlarm very well: https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#UsingFirewallWebShieldProtection/ManagingFirewalls.htm%3FTocPath%3DUsing%2520Firewall%2520%252F%2520Web%2520Shield%2520Protection%7C_____1



Thanks,
Thank you Sir Daniel
