McAfee and Norton want at least Catalina (10.5). You need Mojave (10.14) or better to run Kaspersky or Trend Micro Antivirus for Mac.
ProtectWorks goes a tad farther back, with support for Mountain Lion (10.8) or later in the current versions. That's good news for those rare Mac users who don't (or can’t) upgrade to every new version. Intego supports operating systems as far back as Mavericks (10.9) and, of course, anything newer. In addition, Intego offers a full personal firewall, something you don’t get with most Mac antivirus tools. A three-license subscription for Intego costs $66.99 per year, while for $84.99 you get five licenses. Those with more than one Mac get a better per-device price. The most common price for one license is $39.99, a price shared by Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac, ESET Cyber Security for Mac, Kaspersky, Trend Micro, and Webroot. With a list price of $49.99 per year for one license, Intego costs more than most Mac antivirus software. Intego (accent on the first syllable) is effective against Mac malware, according to one lab, and the presence of a firewall component is welcome, but we’d still like to see detection of malware-hosting URLs, phishing frauds, and other dangers of the web. It also includes a full-featured firewall that both blocks attacks from outside and manages network permissions for programs loaded on the Mac. Intego Mac Internet Security, the latest release, is more than just an antivirus. For well over 20 years, Intego's central mission has been protecting Apple products.
The vast majority of antivirus companies that publish security software for the Macintosh started with a Windows product first, but not Intego.
