Re: Mac AV recommendations

[Chris Green <cmgreen () UAB EDU>]

We use Sophos.   The only major issue we've had is incompatibility 10.5 / FileVault causing infinite loops on mounting 
the encrypted volume.  They blamed OS X.   They do seem to get updates out reasonably quickly which is better than 
McAfee ever did.   Getting someone to support it did involve multiple continents/countries however.

Subject: [SECURITY] Mac AV recommendations

Quick question.  Does anyone have any recommendations for Mac anti-virus software?  We ~25 Macs, so a centralized 
server isn't needed.

Is anyone currently using ClamAv or ProtectMac?


Thanks.
