VirusBarrier support informed me that it does protect against ransomware. VirusBarrier didn’t offer solid Windows virus protection in the past (which was one drawback from the app), but it does now (although we need to see some additional results from virus labs on testing).

Virus protection seems solid for protecting against Mac malware according to the virus labs. VirusBarrier now also offers protection for Windows PCs, plus it can scan iOS and iPadOS devices plugged into a Mac (although such a feature isn’t widely used).

One can mark certain files as “trusted files” to exclude those from scans if need be.

VirusBarrier offers a combination of on-demand (quick or full), scheduled, and real-time scans (I have VirusBarrier set to run a full scheduled scan once a week, a quick scan after every update, and I have real-time scanning enabled, plus to scan mounted external drives). The user interface in VirusBarrier is also the most Mac-friendly user interface I’ve seen yet. Scans are fast, and I can easily use VirusBarrier without my Mac slowing down or with overall performance or compatibility issues, even on macOS Catalina (Intego has also stated that all of their apps will be fully optimized for macOS Big Sur). VirusBarrier X9 offers solid performance and optimization on the Mac. VirusBarrier X9: My main interest in Intego Internet Security X9 is for VirusBarrier to replace Webroot. Intego’s apps generally run on Macs dating back to Mountain Lion.

I purchased a three Mac license and tested these on an iMac Pro running macOS Catalina and on iMac running High Sierra. Here is a review of each of Intego’s major apps. I took the Intego Premium Bundle X9 for a trial, and I ultimately ended up with Intego Mac Internet Security X9 and standalone Washing Machine X9. Intego has been building antivirus software for the Mac since 1997, and I’ve known firsthand their apps are fully optimized for Macs and offer excellent performance. I finally decided to move back to Intego, the antivirus software I used when I first switched to the Mac back in 2006. I’ve had Webroot Support reinstall the app twice, and I still suffered from kernel panics and overall issues with performance. While I do practice common-sense security practices, I am required to run some form of endpoint protection on my Macs since I use them for work and school purposes. However, since upgrading to macOS Catalina, I have had major performance issues with Webroot. Until recently, I was using Webroot for my primary endpoint antivirus protection on my Mac.
