    Thanks, my government (UK) has banned Kaspersky for use in their infrastructure, so I’ll follow their advice for my own. Not mentioned in the replies is BitDefender, I see they have a solution as well, I’ll evaluate.

      Maybe Crowdstrike? I know I see it on our linux machines. I am not endorsing it one way or the other. I will say that we have had a couple of incidents where I thought it was taking up more cpu in a high cpu situation, but our admins turned it off, and that wasn’t the problem. So I guess it’s working ok. One of their updates caused some issues one time, and I don’t recall the exact details, but I think that was a one off and they haven’t done it again.

      I almost forgot to tell you. For the equivalent of business endpoint AVs, there exist consumer AVs. If for those products, the companies have auto renewal policy, stay away from any such money grubber AV company. Very few companies like Kaspersky do NOT have auto renewal. Norton for example has it.
