Intego Mac Internet Security X9: Antivirus protection Intego Mac Internet Security X9 runs on macOS 10.9 Mavericks and above. Intego covers all of the bases with its antivirus protection, referred to as VirusBarrier. Its antivirus scanning can be scheduled to run at regular intervals or as one-offs, but also as real-time protection as soon as you complete the initial setup. Any connected external drives will be included in virus scans, and optionally this can cover connected iOS devices as well.īitdefender and Kaspersky's Mac antivirus programs were not tested at this time. In August-September 2020, Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac detected 97.3% of Mac malware in May-June 2020, Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac detected 100%. Intego was not evaluated in either round. Intego Mac Internet Security X9 did avoid any false positives in November-December 2020, meaning all detections were accurate, but this was true of its competitors as well. It also detected more than 99% of Windows malware. This was an uncharacteristically poor performance for Intego Mac Internet Security X9. It had previously failed to detect 100% of malware threats in AV-Test's evaluations only once since April of 2017. In February-March 2020, it spotted 100% of Mac malware. Turning to the AV-Comparatives testing, Intego Mac Internet Security X9 was not part of the June 2020 testing, but it received a perfect 100% in the June 2019 and July 2018 tests. In July 2017, it fell just short of this mark with a 99.6% detection rate. Intego Mac Internet Security X9: Security and privacy features Avast, Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Trend Micro were all part of the June 2019 test as well and received a perfect 100%. Intego is again quite reminiscent of Avast Free Security for Mac in that there simply isn't much going on with the app outside of handling your antivirus protection - which is after all its express purpose. ![]() Intego's Safe Browsing On feature is really just a check of the settings on your installed browsers. It verifies that the built-in safe-browsing feature on your browsers is active, but you can opt to have Intego ignore specific browsers if you prefer. #INTEGO MAC INTERNET SECURITY X WINDOWS#. ![]() #INTEGO MAC INTERNET SECURITY X FOR MAC#.
