Founded in 1997, Intego is the longest-standing security company dedicated exclusively to Mac protection. Every feature and scan is designed around how macOS actually works - not adapted from a Windows-first product. The result is a lightweight, intuitive suite that feels truly native to your Mac. With over 56 million threats blocked and 34 million users worldwide, Intego covers everything from real-time malware defense to firewall, disk cleanup, parental controls, and bootable backups - all in one bundle.
Scans files as they're accessed and monitors your Mac around the clock with continuously updated threat definitions.
Protects inbound and outbound traffic and auto-adjusts security based on your network - home, work, or public Wi-Fi.
Custom profiles per child, internet scheduling, content blocking, and chat monitoring with an anti-predator alert system.
Removes junk files, caches, duplicates, and unused apps to free up space and keep your Mac running smoothly.
Scheduled, bootable Mac backups to an external drive or another Mac - something Time Machine doesn't offer.
Detects Mac, Windows, and cross-platform threats, preventing your Mac from passing infected files to others.
The go-to antivirus for Mac users who want protection built around macOS, not adapted from Windows.
Replaces separate antivirus, firewall, cleaner, backup, and parental control apps under one subscription.
Runs quietly in the background without the slowdowns cross-platform tools often cause.
Free technical support included - users consistently praise the team's speed and helpfulness.
25+ years of Mac-exclusive experience, 56 million threats blocked, 34 million users worldwide.
Purpose-built for macOS - feels native, unlike cross-platform alternatives.

Intego is the most Mac-dedicated antivirus on the market - and that focus is its greatest strength. For over 25 years, it has done one thing well: protect Apple devices with software that feels native to macOS, not bolted on from another platform. The Mac Premium Bundle X9 offers strong value for users who want antivirus, firewall, cleanup, backup, and parental controls without juggling multiple subscriptions. The main trade-offs are the lack of a built-in VPN in the standard bundle and limited standalone iOS protection. But for anyone whose digital life centers on their Mac, Intego delivers comprehensive security that justifies both its reputation and its price.
See what some customers are saying about Intego
I subscribed to the Intego VPN app a year ago and promptly forgot I had it. When I asked them to belatedly cancel my subscription and refund me, to my surprise they agreed despite the fault lying entirely with me. A welcome human touch from a friendly and approachable company. I can recommend their Internet Security suite too. Top marks.
Purchasing and downloading the software was easy and efficient.
Wow, talk about a quick, positive and pleasant response. Less than 10 minutes to sort my issue. Thank you Intego.
I've been a customer for over 10 years and have found the Intego software to be reliable and timely. When I've contacted customer support, their response has been very quick.
Easy to purchase. Easy to install. Good support too. Thank you.
