A good Mac antivirus will help protect your Apple computer from viruses, trojans and cyber attacks. Eight antivirus programs for macOS achieve top marks.
Why do you need virus protection on your Mac? The answer is simple: Cyber attacks and hacker attacks are no longer just the targets of large authorities and companies, but increasingly also private users. Those responsible want to get hold of private information, spy on bank details or blackmail the victims.
While there are numerous antivirus programs for Windows, things are a little different for Mac users. Only a handful of manufacturers release a version of their antivirus program for the Apple computer. That independent test institute AV-Test regularly checks which antivirus software achieves the best rating.
