After an initial antivirus signature update, your protection is fully active. You also must actively choose whether the antivirus should detect low-risk PUAs, or potentially unwanted applications. As with the Windows edition, you must decide during installation whether to participate in ESET's LiveGrid online analysis system. Installation on the Apple MacBook Air 13-Inch I use for testing went quickly and didn't require a restart.
Mac users typically stay up to date, but if you’re stuck with an antique macOS version, perhaps due to old hardware, you might consider ProtectWorks or ClamXAV (for Mac), both of which extend support all the way back to 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
#ROOTKIT FOR MAC ESET REVIEW INSTALL#
If you find you have more licenses than you need, you could even install ESET on your Linux boxes, though Linux malware is scarce.ĮSET Cyber Security works with macOS versions back to 10.12 (Sierra), the same as Clario, Webroot, and others.
In fact, your licenses for this product and NOD32 are interchangeable. Like ESET NOD32 Antivirus, ESET Cyber Security costs $39.99 per year for one license, and $10 per year apiece for each additional license, up to five. How Much Does ESET Cyber Security for Mac Cost?
It seems effective, though since it no longer has certification from independent labs, it's hard to be sure. ESET Cyber Security (for Mac) combines Mac antivirus protection with a collection of useful bonus features, though admittedly, the bonus features don't pack the punch of their Windows equivalents. Yes, they’re not as luscious a target for malware coders as PCs are, but macOS malware, including ransomware, exists. But Macs don’t actually have the superpowered invulnerability promoted in those ads. Remember those old TV ads touting the “fact” that PCs get viruses and Macs don’t? At least they succeeded in hammering home the need for antivirus on a PC.
