  • Virus Protection
    Also, while anti-virus software is useful on computers, I would recommend not using them if you can as they can be very privacy invasive. Windows already has an AV program built-in which is actually decent now, and MacOS has three layers of protection to protect your Mac from malware. But if you really do want one, I'd recommend Malwarebytes or Sophos Home. Malwarebytes has a free version but that is only an... Source: 11 months ago

    Apple has a series of anti-malware systems XProtect, GateKeeper, and Notarization built into MacBooks to prevent unauthorized access to the camera and microphone. If you feel that’s not enough and you want to add extra protection, install Sophos Home which will warn you each time the camera is accessed and add if you want to allow the access. If this laptop is from work, ask your employer to install Sophos... Source: 12 months ago

    For home use, Sophos Home: https://home.sophos.com/en-us (Disclosure: I used to work for Sophos, I no longer do.) It's a good mix of traditional antivirus, antimalware, and privacy tools. It's also available for Macs. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
  • My parents fell for a malware scam. What now?
    First and foremost, always deploy enterprise level malware on any computer give to someone who doesn’t know about malware or the difference between malware and potentially unwanted applications (PUA). I recommend something that isn’t going to confuse your parents, freak them out, make you call you for every popup, or allow them to randomly choose options that may cause more harm than good. I use Sophos Home on... Source: about 2 years ago
