[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 949482, member: 83059"] They actually had trouble finding samples, and not even all of the samples work on Big Sur. This is one reason why I’m not a big advocate of AV software for Macs yet. Most of them are just signature scanners with no interesting dynamic behavior or network blocking components. And there’s very very few such attacks against a Mac. macOS’s read only + signed system volume plus the System Integrity Protection feature makes it really hard to plant malware that evades their built in malware removal tool which can get pushed updates for in the wild threats.
