    On your Mac OS X, you can spot suspicious threats with the helpful utilities you already have without needing to download additional software programs. Open Activity Monitor to see unfamiliar processes, look at Login items in System Preferences for unfamiliar programs, and look in your applications for unusual programs. Finder will show you your recent downloads, which you can delete. Apple’s Gatekeeper and XProtect program already automatically screens files in the background, but knowing how to check for viruses on Mac can assist you in noticing odd behaviour like whirring sounds, slowness, and pop-ups. Also, ensure your Mac is running up to date and avoid installing dodgy-looking browser extensions. Read more; https://datarecovee.com/how-to-check-for-malware-on-mac/
