Greetings,
What is everyone doing to protect your MAC computer against malware, online, and email threats?
Besides common-sense practices like: don't go to strange websites, don't click on unknown emails, etc...
It seems that most people on the Apple Forums don't recommend using commercial Anti-Malware or Internet Security software. MacOS Catalina has protection built into it and Apple handles everything with OS updates.
They don't recommend software like: Norton Security, McAfee, Webroot Internet Security, CleanMyMac, Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, etc. They say this type of software slows down the computer and do more harm than good and they can corrupt the operating system.
What are your opinion and recommendations?
Cheers!
