    VPN & Eset Firewall Setup

    in ESET Internet Security & ESET Smart Security Premium

    Many Windows VPN clients don't have own Firewall or Kill Switch. A VPN Client usually creates a virtual network adapter or MiniPort, which is used by the client instead of physical Ethernet or WiFi adapter, thus creating a separate "Network Connection" in Eset Firewall. Please advice how to best configure Eset Firewall in a way, that all traffic from the PC would pass only through VPN, and any other traffic outside VPN is blocked by Eset Firewall?

    Also, when VPN connection is temporarily interrupted, Eset Firewall should block all PC traffic on all adapters until the VPN connection is restored.

    Can you also explain whether Eset does Real Time Protection on traffic passing through the VPN virtual adapter? If yes, is it done after the traffic has passed the adapter and was decrypted by VPN Client?

    I have read in a guide that Ivacy VPN offers kill switch but I'm not sure if Eset's firewall compatible.

    Malware from Kodi on Raspberry Pi can swap on Windows?

    Hi. I have also read somewhere in bleepingcomputer that Yes, it's possible on Windows. I am not sure when you transfer using WinSCP. I read from their site that if offered by the server, WinSCP may support SSH "keyboard-interactive" authentication methods. The server can prompt for special credentials such as a one-time S / Key password or generated value from RSA SecurID with keyboard-interactive authentication.

    Hi!
     

    Found this instruction for Mac on their support page.

    1. Open ESET Cyber Security or ESET Cyber Security Pro.

    2. Press the F5 key to access Advanced setup. 

    3. Expand Detection Engine → Malware scans → Removable media, select Do not scan, and then click OK.

    4. Click the slider bar next to Removable media blocking and then click Setup.

    5. By default, all media is blocked once removable media blocking is enabled. Deselect the check box next to any media type to allow it. Once you are finished, close the Media window. Your media blocking rules will go into effect immediately.
