Key Features

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 for Mac builds on the world-renowned capabilities of Kaspersky Lab’s other Anti-Virus solutions to provide powerful, effective, unobtrusive protection against all known Internet threats and malware which is yet unknown.

  • Complete threat protection against Trojans, worms, spyware, adware as well as viruses, phishing and 0-day threats affecting Mac OS, Windows and Linux.
  • Cloud-based scanning from the Kaspersky Security Network® checks every application, file and site against the very latest malware threat information. As soon as we know about a malware threat, you’re protected against it. Heuristic protection scans files using sophisticated algorithms to see if they appear to be bogus or contain malware. The Kaspersky Lab URL Advisor browser extension alerts you to suspicious websites, protecting you against phishing scams aimed at stealing personal data such as banking details.
  • Automatic malware database updates itself several times a day for the very latest protection from malware.
  • Multi-core optimization means work is spread across processor cores, enhancing performance and reducing impact on your system. Intelligent scanning means trusted files that haven’t changed are left alone – reducing the resources needed to scan and further improving protection.
  • Technical support options include phone and email help from qualified technicians via telephone and email. My Kaspersky Account service organizes requests to technical support. FastTrack Support answers frequently-asked questions, while Kaspersky Lab’s Knowledge Base offers you an online database of detailed answers to questions about installing and using Kaspersky Lab products.
