AV software on Blue Iris PC

Is there an AV (anti-virus) or similar software that works well on a BI PC?

Norton and defender dont cause issues for me...remember to exclude the blue iris software and storage folders.

Any reason you don't just use windows defender? Far less resource usage than any of the 3rd parties. Can say I've never seen a virus on any of my machines. And my work laptop gets plugged into a lot of different networks.

Defender has been consistently shown to be weak on av tests...
Norton has no detectable impact on a pc..Symantec Norton Security Deluxe "Zero impact in performance tests. "
It doesnt really matter for me as BI is not installed on any systems that surf the net...I buy the norton licenses in packs of 5 users for about 20 when they go on sale...so I always have extra licenses....I use both norton and defender...
some users will inevitably surf on the machine - in that case I recommend norton..
