Mac OS
It’s true that malware is less common on Macs than on Windows or Android. But that doesn’t mean Macs are inherently more secure, or that Mac users should take their security for granted.
Remove Java from your Mac unless you absolutely need it
Mac OS faces a vulnerability in Java. If you can’t eliminate Java completely, at least turn it off in your browser, where Java threats are looming.
Keep your software patched with up-to-date security fixes
Hackers find plenty of victims by exploiting known vulnerabilities that could have been halted by a security patch.
Set GateKeeper to only run digitally-signed apps
Apple is very good at keeping malicious apps out of its stores for Mac and iOS apps (iPhones, iPads).
