[QUOTE="SpiderWeb, post: 967333, member: 88686"] Everything has changed with Monterey. I have an M1. I am not happy with the current security solutions on the market. None of them are truly compatible with Monterey. You have to go into the "BIOS" equivalent of your M1 and disable critical security features in order for your AV to run. So you have to sacrifice hardware security for superficial software security. That's unacceptable. If someone knows of an AV that is M1-optimized and does NOT require System/Kernel extensions please let me know. As it stands I will not allow non-Apple signed code to run in kernel and scan everything when the default security policy is superior. As it stands, Mac Monterey and M1 just drove AVs out of business on Mac and none of them are willing to adapt. [/QUOTE]
