Intego is again quite reminiscent of Avast Free Security for Mac in that there simply isn't much going on with the app outside of handling your antivirus protection - which is after all its express purpose. Intego Mac Internet Security X9: Security and privacy features

Avast, Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Trend Micro were all part of the June 2019 test as well and received a perfect 100%. In July 2017, it fell just short of this mark with a 99.6% detection rate. Turning to the AV-Comparatives testing, Intego Mac Internet Security X9 was not part of the June 2020 testing, but it received a perfect 100% in the June 2019 and July 2018 tests. In February-March 2020, it spotted 100% of Mac malware. It had previously failed to detect 100% of malware threats in AV-Test's evaluations only once since April of 2017. This was an uncharacteristically poor performance for Intego Mac Internet Security X9. It also detected more than 99% of Windows malware. Intego Mac Internet Security X9 did avoid any false positives in November-December 2020, meaning all detections were accurate, but this was true of its competitors as well.

Intego was not evaluated in either round.

In August-September 2020, Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac detected 97.3% of Mac malware in May-June 2020, Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac detected 100%. Bitdefender and Kaspersky's Mac antivirus programs were not tested at this time.
