Kaspersky Lab releases Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Macintosh computers <\/strong><\/p>\n Make your Mac even more secure with Kaspersky Anti-Virus<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Singapore, 12 November 2009 – Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content management solutions, today announced the release of a new product that protects Macintosh computers from all types of malware. Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Mac protects against Mac OS viruses, worms and Trojans as well as combating similar threats for Windows and Linux operating systems.<\/p>\n \u201cMany Macintosh users mistakenly believe the Mac Operating System is free from malware or virus attacks.\u00a0 Just because they have not been infected in the past does not mean they are safe now. \u00a0For example a Mac machine may be compromised by Trojans or key loggers without the user being alerted to the presence of the threat,\u201d said Ms Gun Suk Ling, Managing Director for Kaspersky Lab, Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n \u201cSince 2005 there has been a marked increase in the number of vulnerabilities in the Mac OS which can be used to conduct an attack via the internet. \u00a0So it is important Mac users keep their computers protected with Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Macintosh,\u201d Ms Gun said.<\/p>\n The release of Mac OS X has increased the popularity of multiplatform computers and Macs are now an integral part of many corporate and home networks. \u00a0However, if these machines are unprotected, they can act like an open gate by allowing malicious programs to penetrate any computer in a network.<\/p>\n Key features of the Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Mac include:<\/p>\n Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Mac was especially designed to meet the needs of this operating system, offering complete compatibility with all versions of the OS from 10.4.11. Other technical requirements include: a Macintosh with the Intel processor, 512 MB available RAM and 80 MB available hard drive space.<\/p>\n
\nKaspersky Anti-Virus for Mac is based on Kaspersky Lab\u2019s new antivirus engine which dramatically increases system scanning speed particularly on dual- and quad-core processor platforms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
