Any chance that hacker can access to other devices through wifi network?
You can prevent the LOLbin from contacting its C2 server by using an tool like FirewallHardening which you can download here, it allows you to add firewall block rules in Windows Firewall to prevent LOLbins from phoning home, not only .NET framework files but also things like Powershell and ConHost which are abused by the majority of malware.

Chinese hackers at it again. It’s crazy; I’ve changed my password twice lol. They really want this account.
For keeping malware off your machine Windows Defender and some common sense should be perfectly fine, although I would recommend running ConfigureDefender and choosing whatever security level you find most appropriate for your use case. Also if you ever suspect you have malware that Defender didn't detect, just download the free version of malwarebytes, do a quick scan and uninstall it again; it's highly unlikely that something would make it past both of them.

Windows 11 built-in security is quite good, particularly when paired with the likes of ConfigureDefender or DefenderUI which allows you to tweak the built-in protection https://github.com/AndyFul/ConfigureDefender but there are third party options out there. Andy Ful also has system hardening tools that add an extra layer of protection but there have been some compatibility issues with windows new SmartApp Control feature https://github.com/AndyFul/Hard_Configurator/tree/master/Simple%20Windows%20Hardening .

Block 45.76.93.104 and 2001:19f0:6c00:1b0e:5400:4ff:fecd:7828 at the firewall if possible.
Ensure that DNS-over-HTTP (DoH) is enabled where it can be.
Set upstream DNS servers that block malware, such as 1.1.1.2 or NextDNS
Delete "fritz.box" from the domain search list in DNS settings.
Educate your parents to be cautious about directly typing domain names or searching from the OmniBox.

Ask HN: Which tools are the best for internet safety for kids?
I've tried hosted Pi-Hole and AdGuard Home. They are good as long as I'm around to fix stuffs. Then I tested something which can be global (home) and also for individual devices -- Control-D, NextDNS, and Adguard DNS. All of them works pretty well. If I really have to choose, then it would be in the order of NextDNS > Control-D > AdGuard DNS. Affiliated with none, and have decided to subscribe to all three to further test them for this year.

You just need Firefox and the extensions that mean ads are never seen.
