Intego

The software is natively developed for macOS and offers excellent protection with minimal system impact. The Mac Internet Security X9 package includes real-time virus protection and an intelligent firewall. The Premium Bundle adds backup, cleanup, and parental controls. The only downside: Intego is purely Mac-focused – there is no Windows or Android protection.
