Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac

Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition is free and fully featured anti-virus software that will protect your Mac from all sorts of internet threats that can damage your security, files, and privacy. Security experts know that the largest damage to local files, private information theft and OS instabilities can happen when users who don’t have much technical knowledge are interacting with internet or external storage devices, so because of that much of the Anti-Virus features are automatic and can detect software threats even without supervision by advanced users.

This makes Sophos Anti-Virus perfect for every Mac user, who can have a piece of mind knowing that that very competent antivirus program is monitoring their home PC or laptop constantly. To make this monitoring as less intruding as possible, Sophos Anti-Virus for macOS demands very little CPU processing, which is especially useful for laptop owners.

Built with simple to use interface and powerful options, the tool offers full protection for novice users, professionals and businesses. The main dashboard of this app is very simple, offering an easy way to start manual scans, see quarantined files, and setup your preferences with ease (including the configuration of real-time scanning, auto updates and more). From viruses, Trojans, worms to all sorts of identity thefts, your system will remain safe and in constant communication with the SophosLabs experts who offer constant upgrades and new virus definitions that can detect and quarantine even future threats. And all of that is offered to you for free.
