In the free Avast One Essential, lock icons denote premium-only features. Only Webroot SecureAnywhere Antivirus for Mac, with 100%, has recently scored higher.Д¬licking Explore in the simple menu at left brings up a list of available features. Looking strictly at Mac products, AvastвЂ™s 99% puts it in a tie with Bitdefender. It scores significantly better than the phishing protection built into popular browsers. In my hands-on phishing protection test, Avast detects 99% of the very new real-world samples, just as its Windows version did. When Avast detects a problem page, it diverts the browser to display a warning and also pops up a notification. Phishing frauds can be a real danger, because they trick inattentive users into giving away important security credentials. But if the warning comes as a surprise, smack that Block button.ДЄvastвЂ™s Web Shield component works below the browser level, preventing your browsers from opening dangerous or fraudulent websites.

If youвЂ™re testing a new, legitimate program, go ahead and trust it. When an unauthorized program tries to access a protected file, Avast warns you and asks whether to allow it. Naturally, you can add file types or folders for extended protection. By default, it protects a wide variety of important file types in your Documents and Pictures folders. Ransomware protection works just as it does on Windows. Yes, Windows malware canвЂ™t infect a Mac, but the Mac could serve to pass along those threats over the network. When I scanned a thumb drive containing my current Windows malware samples, it identified 85% of them as dangerous. While no product achieves total perfection in every test, Avast and Bitdefender come very close.ДЄvastвЂ™s comprehensive Deep Scan finished in 21 minutes, beating the current average of 27 minutes. In a test using lower-risk PUAs (Potentially Unwanted Applications), Avast detects 99%, tying with Bitdefender for the top score. Tested by AV-Comparatives, Avast achieved 100% protection against macOS-centric malware and against Windows malware. Bitdefender also scores 17.5 with this lab, while Norton and Trend Micro reach a perfect 18. That total of 17.5 points, just shy of a perfect 18, is enough to get it named Top Product. AV-Test Institute awards it six points each for Performance and Usability and 5.5 for Performance. If youвЂ™re strictly and only protecting Macs, you probably should stick with the free product.ДЄntivirus protection is the same, naturally, and the labs give it excellent marks. But paying doesnвЂ™t get you much more on a Mac.

Naturally, users of this tool get all the features found in Avast One Essential for Mac, plus more. Many of the drawings include happy people, clearly pleased to have AvastвЂ™s protection. The user interface is very similar across all platforms, with light-colored background, rounded buttons, and a pleasant, airy feel.Д®verywhere you look there are line drawings, enlivened with daubs of pastel colors. Both those dark themes are gone in Avast One. Where AvastвЂ™s previous products for Windows used a dark gray background, the macOS products went for a rich purple.

Intego works on 10.9 (Mavericks) or higher, while ProtectWorks goes all the way back to 10.8 (Mountain Lion). At the other end of the spectrum, a few antivirus tools still support ancient macOS versions for those who canвЂ™t (or wonвЂ™t) upgrade. Kaspersky wants 10.14 (Mojave), and Avira requires 10.15 (Catalina). Most Mac owners keep the OS up to date, so that shouldnвЂ™t be a problem.

With Norton, which costs $5 more, you also get five full VPN licenses, as well as 50GB of storage for your (Windows) backups. Your subscription gets you a broad range of protection including five no-limits VPN licenses. Note, though, that Clario and Intego charge the same for just three licenses. At first glance, Avast OneвЂ™s price of $99.99 per year for five licenses might seem expensive. You pay $59.99 for Kaspersky, Sophos, or McAfee, but that price gets you three, 10, and unlimited licenses respectively. Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac, Trend Micro, and Webroot are examples. Quite a few Mac antivirus products, like their Windows cousins, cost just under $40 per year. Do note that once that merger is complete, Norton will own Avast, Avira, AVG, and BullGuard. ThereвЂ™s no visible connection between the release of this new product line and the pending merger of Avast with NortonLifeLock.
