Too bad kaspersky has been banned/cancelled in my country (USA). Any alternatives? I don’t necessarily use antivirus, thought it was unnecessary with Windows 11 built in Security. But now my mind is changing… anyways There should be a open source tool for Windows that only allows only 1 trusted keyboard/mouse to input and monitors for anything sketchy in USB firmware. Seems easy enough to create.

The safest scenario will be using encryption always even with cable keyboard/mouse and a pre-auth with a public/private key scheme like the one in android debugger bridge or TLS.
