The war in Ukraine is not only physical, it is also digital. The Anonymous have carried out a series of cyberattacks against the Russian organs to show their support for the Ukrainians. In France, since this morning, “nearly 9,000 subscribers” French satellite internet service Nordnet (subsidiary of Orange) are deprived of internet.
Anyone can be the victim of a cyberattack and you have to know how to protect yourself. Opting for a serious and reliable antivirus will only cost you a few euros per month. In return, you are guaranteed to have maximum protection in this data war. If you have a Mac, you are as concerned as on Windows: you have to protect yourself.
This weekend, the American reference on Mac, Intego, offers its antivirus at only 19.99 euros per year (instead of 49.99 euros). You can therefore save 60% on this software which is known to be the most reliable on macOS. AV-Test, an independent, has also elected him best antivirus on mac. It is available with a period of 30 days “satisfied or refunded”.
Kaspersky, a risk?
To avoid finding yourself in the middle of a cyber-war, you have to know which side to choose. A few days ago, the ANSSI (National Authority for Security and Defense of Information Systems) recognized that “the use of tools such as those of the Kaspersky company, can be questioned because of its link with Russia”. However, the organization qualified its statement by saying that nothing showed that this antivirus was at risk – for the moment.
If you want to be quiet, it will be better to choose a more neutral antivirus – like Intego. The latter is published by an American company that has existed since 1997. It focuses only on macOS (and abandons Windows) to offer the best solution on this operating system. With experts scanning its network of 30 million machines, the maximum level of security is assured.
Intego has capitalized for almost 20 years solely on its Mac antivirus. In recent years, however, it has developed other tools to meet the security and optimization needs of its customers’ Macs. In particular, it offers a pack that includes four software: antivirus, a cleaning tool for Mac, a tool that allows automatic backups to the cloud and a parental control tool.
This software package, called Mac Premium Bundle X9is also at a reduced price at the moment: you can buy it for 29.99 euros per year, compared to 84.99 euros per year in normal times. This saves you here too more than 60% compared to the normal price. This pack is relevant because it allows you to go further than simple antivirus.
For example, if your Mac were to be compromised, you could always recover a cloud backup made by the software. Likewise, its cleaning tool for Mac, Washing Machine, is one of the most effective on the market. It allows you to speed up your machine up to 3 times depending on the state of your current computer. In short, beyond its antivirus for Mac, Intego is a complete solution to increase the life of your device.
