The closest full scan was Avast (10:25), and Intego was about six times faster than the slowest scan from Kaspersky (39:05). Intego Mac Internet Security X9's first deep scan took 6 minutes and 22 seconds and scanned 623,142 files. However, that was outclassed by Bitdefender (1%), Trend Micro (1%) and Norton (0%). Avast (27%) was its next closest competitor, while Bitdefender (19%) was well ahead and Kaspersky (12%) and Norton (12%) showed performance impacts that were just a bit more than a third of Intego's.Ī quick scan went better for Intego with just a 3% drop, matching Avast (3%) and edging out Kaspersky (4%).

That placed it only ahead of Trend Micro (46%). The full scan was much less successful for Intego, resulting in a 34% performance hit. It's nice that Intego draws your attention to the matter, but obviously, this is something you could do yourself. It verifies that the built-in safe-browsing feature on your browsers is active, but you can opt to have Intego ignore specific browsers if you prefer. Intego's Safe Browsing On feature is really just a check of the settings on your installed browsers.

Intego is again quite reminiscent of Avast Free Security for Mac in that there simply isn't much going on with the app outside of handling your antivirus protection - which is after all its express purpose. Intego Mac Internet Security X9: Security and privacy features Avast, Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Trend Micro were all part of the June 2019 test as well and received a perfect 100%. In July 2017, it fell just short of this mark with a 99.6% detection rate. Turning to the AV-Comparatives testing, Intego Mac Internet Security X9 was not part of the June 2020 testing, but it received a perfect 100% in the June 2019 and July 2018 tests. In February-March 2020, it spotted 100% of Mac malware. It had previously failed to detect 100% of malware threats in AV-Test's evaluations only once since April of 2017. This was an uncharacteristically poor performance for Intego Mac Internet Security X9. It also detected more than 99% of Windows malware. Intego Mac Internet Security X9 did avoid any false positives in November-December 2020, meaning all detections were accurate, but this was true of its competitors as well. Intego was not evaluated in either round. In August-September 2020, Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac detected 97.3% of Mac malware in May-June 2020, Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac detected 100%. Bitdefender and Kaspersky's Mac antivirus programs were not tested at this time.
