🇺🇸 Test: malware protection under MacOS Tahoe 26.3 » https://www.av-test.org/en/news/test-malware-protection-under-macos-tahoe-263/

There are multiple types of malware for MacOS that attempt to steal data or just infiltrate systems and attacks are growing in frequency. Infostealers in particular have been on the rise in recent months. This is due to the fact that there is a market for this stolen data on the darknet and other illicit platforms. Good security software should offer adequate protection in order to tackle all these dangers. In the first test of the quarter for 2026, the experts from AV-TEST evaluated a total of 14 security solutions for consumer users and corporate users running MacOS systems under Tahoe 26.3. With just a few exceptions, the majority of the products produced quite good results in the testing.
