Its true that malware is less common on Macs
than on Windows or Android. But that doesnt 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
cant 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).

  configuration

configuration set by you. More info.

• Run antivirus software on your Macs

Its always better to have an updated version of
an Anti-virus software to protect Mac OS from
virus or malware attack.
