Whoever is advising you to install an antivirus app should receive some training. They should hire a security consultant. Even Windows computers running modern operating systems have built in antivirus and third party apps interfere with built-in protections. Modern MacOS also have built-in virus protect. Third party apps interfere with the operating system's functionality and capability.

"I have to install antivirus software on my MacBook for HIPAA requirements. Antivirus didn't work well with older Apple computer products in the past in my experience. What antivirus, if any, works well with current Apple computers? I'm running Catalina 10.15.7 on a 2015 MacBook Pro Please let me know if you can."

Hi! Psychotherapist here. I am not sure you need to use antivirus software for the Mac- myself and my associates all have Macs and our HIPAA compliance consultant said it was fine. That said, if you do find additional information about this I'd love to hear it! Thanks

An antivirus app sits on your device like a guard dog, watching over the entire system and sniffing out suspicious intruders. In short, it offers real-time defenses against viruses or other threats, which, if detected, are immediately dealt with, preventing them from carrying out their destructive payload. As well as this automated protection, you can run manual virus scans whenever you wish.

Today's best antivirus programs can help prevent identity theft by keeping an eye on the dark web, where all sorts of personal information is bought and sold. You'll also get protection against phishing scams, and block messages designed to trick you into handing over personal information to dodgy third parties.

More and more antivirus software includes a VPN, too, which will safeguard your browsing sessions regardless of the device you're using. You'll be able to bypass geo-restrictions and blocks, and avoid cookies, trackers, and invasive ads.

A good free antivirus can boost your digital security, and a lot of folks will rely on Microsoft Defender to do the job. The good news is that Microsoft Defender is a decent option that'll cover all of the basics when it comes to putting a stop to viruses and malware.

However, premium antivirus programs offer extra features above and beyond the fundamentals. A robust system of parental controls could be a huge win for those with kids, for example. Or, a dedicated anti-ransomware layer of protection that only comes with the paid-for product could help catch one of the most dreaded infections and halt it in its tracks.

After all, it's your best defense against cybercriminals, viruses, and malware. These threats aren't new, but digital crooks are constantly finding new ways to leverage these tools, capture your personal information, and ultimately commit identity theft.

In this guide, I'll cover the best antivirus options on the market. Each service includes outstanding security and privacy tools that'll allow you to work, play, and enjoy your day-to-day browsing without worrying about being compromised by an opportunistic cybercriminal or interruptions from scams and popups. Here are my top three recommendations:

Whether you're looking for the total antivirus package or hunting for specific features, like banking protection, my guide has you covered. Keep reading to check out my top 10 favorite antivirus solutions (and a few honorable mentions).

Thankfully, F-Secure is one of the few antivirus software companies that has 25/7 live support available. You can reach out to an agent via live chat and, if you encounter a particularly tricky issue, the agent can even connect to your device remotely to fix it from their device.

Price-wise, Trend Micro Antivirus+ Security is cheap, and its Internet Security Maximum Security programs are also fairly priced. Bear in mind that you can only protect a single Windows device with its basic antivirus, but its top product gives you 10 licenses to share across any Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, or even Chromebook device.

Actually all of antivirus compatible with firefox but some times one of them became incompatible, the antivirus support try to fix asap, you can ask bleepingcomputer.com forum about antivirus suggestion, but i suggest Upgrade your browser to Firefox 8

From my experience i recommend Avast (which I use at home) and Avira AntiVir (at work) - both free and good antivirus programs. Avast adds extension for rating sites as safe or not (like the WOT extension) Avira does not.

But ultimately, relying on any one app to protect your system, data, and privacy is a bad bet, especially when almost every antivirus app has proven vulnerable on occasion. No antivirus tool, paid or free, can catch every malicious bit of software that arrives on your computer. You also need secure passwords, two-factor logins, data encryption, systemwide backups, automatic software updates, and smart privacy tools added to your browser. You need to be mindful of what you download and to download software only from official sources, such as the Microsoft App Store and Apple Mac App Store, whenever possible. You should avoid downloading and opening email attachments unless you know what they are. For guidance, check out our full guide to setting up all these security layers.

I am creating a live USB for my personal usage, so i can plug it in any computer and use it as if it were my personal computer...

The thing is that i will also use it for recovery and forensics of windows machines.. and one of the things i need is an antivirus for scanning for malware on the windows partitions.... which antivirus dp you recommend me for this purpose?

Here goes my idea:

I usually use Kaspersky Rescue Disk whenever a college's computer gets raided by virus (We have windows in our company): This live CD developed and feely distributed by kaspersky labs runs on top of gentoo LINUX....

Is there a way to have the same thing in arch linux?

I have a pendrive with a Arch Linux install i use to plug on any machine wherever i go, so i can have my own desktop and personal stuff on any computer, and having kaspersky for performing a virus scan whenever i need to would be just awesome, since its the windows antivirus i trus the most.....

Indeed it can be. I guess you can disable it on the server and client side as a test to see if the problem goes away. At least then you can blame antivirus and then look for a work-around, like exceptions or not scanning network resources.

For those of you coming late to this party, over the last six months or so the newsletter has pursued an ongoing series on alternative antivirus packages. Back in December 2005 I wrote that I'd given up on Norton Antivirus and had been testing alternative antivirus utilities since the summer of 2005.

During the last year of testing, I've examined a wide range of antivirus product, and I've explored the features and options of many others. Products tested during this period include Avast 4.6 free and 4.7 Pro, AVG 7.1 Pro and Network Editions, BitDefender 9 Standard and 10 RC1, CA EZ Antivirus and eTrust Antivirus r8, F-Secure Anti-Virus 2006 and Internet Security 2006, Kaspersky 5 and 6, Nod32 2.5, Panda Titanium 2006 and Platinum 2006, and ZoneAlarm Antivirus. I've considered the features and specs of at least a dozen other products and rejected them because something didn't meet my ideal antivirus criteria.

I've never really seen the point in having outbound scanning. I mean, if you're running a good antivirus the resident scanner (in Nod32's case Amon) would have caught any virus beforehand anyway, so an outbound email scanner wouldn't even get a chance of springing into action.

... incidentally, Humpty, I do applaud you for your choice of Kaspersky AV. Where Nod32 excels in the field of heuristic detection, there's hardly an antivirus that equals KAV with regards to the size of its AV database, paying equal attention to fast moving threats like worms as it does to trojans and adware, or for the speed with which it reacts to new threats.

I remember before I knew about it being a bad thing of having two resident shields running many years ago in my humble beginnings on Win98 that Windows had something along the lines of "warning two antivirus detected" in some configuration file, don't remember which one though it's been a long time.

Kali is mainly for pentesting. It is not supposed to be used as "desktop distro". As far as I know, there is no antivirus and because of tons of exploits built-in you would destroy the whole distro by just installing it.

Probably the best known antivirus for Linux is ClamAV. If you want to have antivirus that's what I would suggest that you use. You should probably have a rootkit checker as well, something like RKHunter or similar. There are other AV vendors that have Linux antivirus solutions like Kaspersky but that is a commercial solution and not included with Kali.

what's the best antivirus that works with the extended kernel? ive been doing research into this recently and can't find anything that would work properly (or won't work at all) so my question is are there any antivirus known to work with the extended kernel if anyone could help with this it would be much appreciated. -legacyfan

My suggestion when setting up postfix is to have a clear plan of what you want to achieve (figure out if you want local or virtual delivery, what type of antivirus/spam system and how to do delivery+filtering).

To a degree, yes. Some antivirus programs can do things like warn you or block you from visiting a suspected phishing site. Others may also automatically block suspicious emails that appear to come from a malicious sender or contain phrasing common in phishing emails. You cannot count on an antivirus program to be a failsafe solution for phishing protection. You still need to be vigilant and know what to look out for on your own when it comes to phishing because an antivirus program won't be able to catch everything.

Any program running on your computer will require a certain amount of processing power to work, which can affect your computer's overall performance. If an antivirus program is just running in the background, it shouldn't have any effect on your computer's performance. When actively running a scan of your system, antivirus software can noticeably slow down your computer. If this is the case, try to schedule antivirus scans at night, or at a time when you're not using your computer. 0852c4b9a8
