I’ve recommended Avast only if people insist since it can be annoying if unpaid. Apparently it is on the list from central Advancement office.

Hello folks

It was pointed out the IST info page for endpoint security had outdated info

Any thoughts for a recommended MacOS solution for those that want one?

For reference
https://www.macworld.com/article/3263722/best-antivirus-for-mac.html

I had been recommending Sophos in general as it has always been reliable and not overly expensive.

And there is this "free" and light anti-virus for MacOS has been getting a fair bit of talk and may be a good in-between measure of "better than nothing" (rather like Windows Defender...)
