It appears many Asus routers are promoted as having special features, but whether they're valuable or just a marketing trick remains unclear.

Looks like a router-based anti-malware solution. Might help if users aren’t familiar with network management. It adds no extra protection beyond what most routers offer out of the box.

This system is designed to safeguard against typical internet threats. It goes beyond basic firewalls by conducting thorough checks on incoming and outgoing network traffic to prevent common attacks. I configured a specific port forwarding for a Microsoft app, but received alerts from Kaspersky antivirus about a brute-force RDP attempt twice. Afterward, I disabled that forwarding. This isn't the first instance—Kaspersky has warned me before about similar issues with other services like Uplay and gaming apps.
