I use Windows 10, do all the updates in time, browse only with Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome, and I think that I have all the common good security practices meant to avoid exposing my system to malware.
I've read that antivirus software can be exploitable, but don't know how dangerous these flaws can be in the real world, or if some are known to have been exploited by malware.
In this situation, can a third party antivirus add to security, or should I avoid them ?
Please only consider the security side, and not the potential loss of performance/pop-up annoyances/weird problems that antivirus software can cause. I'm simply trying to know which situation offers the best security.
