Like Bitdefender and Kaspersky, Avast supports macOS versions back to 10.9 Mavericks. It's a very different appearance from Avast Free Antivirus on Windows, which uses pops of purple and green on a dark gray background. The product's spacious main window features a large status indicator centered in an otherwise-empty white region, with a menu down the left side. When you click to activate, you get a choice of signing up for $2.99 per month or starting a 30-day trial. You'll also find Avast's SecureLine VPN on that page, but it's not free like the others. Installation went quickly, though I did find I had to separately activate the password manager and the Online Security browser extension from the Tools page. Avast Security offers Macs protection against malware along with advanced features including a password manager and a network security scanner, all for a cost of exactly nothing. The situation may not be nearly as bad as for Window or Android, but prudence still dictates that you install antivirus protection on your Macs as well. It wasn't true, alas, and as time goes on we see more and more Mac-specific malware attacks. Phishing protection only works well in Chrome and Firefox, but this free utility is still worth a look.įor years, Mac users basked in the mystique of virus-free computing. Password manager includes only basic features.Īvast Security (for Mac) delivers effective malware protection along with unusual bonus features.
Excellent phishing protection for Chrome and Firefox. Certified by one independent testing lab.
