Trend Micro Antivirus for Mac Review
Summary
To test an antivirus products protection against phishing, I scour the web for the newest reported frauds, making sure to include URLs that haven’t yet been analyzed and blacklisted. That program wont run on a Mac, naturally, but Ive become adept at the button-mashing needed to copy and paste each URL into the browser and manually type in the result. On the plus side, selecting a category gets you a detailed description, in case you’re not sure what the product means by, say, “Tasteless.” Settings are global to all users, so if you share this Mac with a child, youll just have to make an exception any time it blocks a page you want to visit. The link to get ID Security for free brings up a page with a QR code you can snap to install on your Android or iOS device; yes, this is a mobile-only feature. During the trial, and continuing if you decide to subscribe, you get monitoring of a broad range of personal data including name, address, phone, email, legal IDs, financial accounts, and more.
