It should be remembered that Dr.Web for Mac OS X became available to users on January 26 of this year. The free scanner is a high-quality and reliable tool that can be used to scan and cure files on hard disks and any removable media. As with other Dr.Web products, a user can choose between three scanning modes: quick, full, and custom. Dr.Web for macOS will never freeze your Mac during scanning—even if an error occurs. In most cases, with default settings Dr.Web does not require the user to respond to the anti-virus in any way and will not distract you from your tasks. MacOS Aqua interface makes using Dr.Web intuitive and simple.
Dr. Web Antivirus for macOS deploys the usual interface, as you can see.
Let’s say that you operate an internet security company, and you discover a brand-new security threat for the Mac platform – one that is allegedly safe since forever. You can honestly brag about it, and deservedly so. Dr.Web «uncovered the first botnet» made of Macs in 2012, but its software runs on OS X since 2009 and implement the usual graphic interface implemented by the majority of antivirus.
It comes in a free edition which gives you only basic protection, and a paid one that extends its reach with features like firewall, anti-spam filters, automatic, manual or scheduled scans, quarantine option, a log that record every ambiguous object, a database of all the virus already out in the open, and much more.
Conclusion
As a security warden, Dr. Web Antivirus for Mac OS X surely protects your computer. If your Mac is a bit old, though, Dr. Web can be a stress on your performance.
