block port 445 inbound, it's more than nothing
- pixl97 7y agoThe vast majority of desktop computers will not need 445 inbound. If you happen to have some enterprise tool that does, just add an allow rule for those particular servers. This protects you against a large number of other attacks such as ransomware over the local network too.
- gruez 7y agoYou’d want to block 445 outbound as well, in case your computer tries to connect to an external server (eg. social engineering and/or UNC paths)
