Kaspersky Mac – Antivirus Protection Software For Macintosh OSX
Its official now, Kaspersky Antivirus for Mac is now available for download. As one of the leading antivirus solution in the market, Kaspersky is charging $59.95 for a single license. Personally, I find this somewhat too expensive, considering the fact that Mac OS doesn’t come with that many threat.
Features and requirements:
- Intel-based Macintosh computer (PowerPC processor not supported)
- 512 MB free RAM
- 100 MB free hard drive space
- Mac OS X 4/10/11 operating system, or higher
- Real-time scanning of files
- Uses the latest Kaspersky antivirus technologies
- Fast and non-intrusive with only 1% CPU impact on your Mac performance
Is the money worth investing on an antivirus for mac? To be honest, no. The chances of a Mac being infected with a virus or any other malware is really slim. Unless the Mac is for general public like in a library or for small business purposes, I don’t see a reason for purchasing an antivirus.
