Under the Internet Security tab, you’ll find MacKeeper’s integrated antivirus scanner. Here, you can perform a system scan to detect any malicious files or malware on your device. However, MacKeeper can’t detect and remove rootkits - when I asked a MacKeeper representative about this, they said, “Unfortunately, this kind of threat is not included in the Antivirus database.” To protect your Mac against rootkits, I’d recommend you use a dedicated rootkit removal software, such as Sophos’s Rootkit Removal.
MAC CLEANER REVIEW SOFTWARE
The software helps to safeguard your macOS device from malware, ransomware, and other viruses. MacKeeper has a decent range of security features that protects your device in real-time. I’ve reviewed over 30 different antivirus programs, and I have pretty high standards when it comes to my Mac’s security. There are also some pretty decent identity theft protection features which I found to be particularly useful. There are many great tools that I can use to maximize the performance of my Mac and keep it running light and fast, even though it’s pretty low on hard drive space. In general, it’s a pretty decent program with a lot of great features. I was nervous about testing MacKeeper because of the company’s past history, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the software’s range of features - a significant improvement on previous versions.
