SIRT is also testing Trend Micro Security for Mac 1.5 (TMSM) with the expectation of switching from SAV to TMSM this fall. K-State currently provides Symantec Antivirus for Macs 10.2.1 (SAV), but Symantec has yet to say when they will support Mac OS X 10.6.
Unfortunately, security software vendors haven’t matched that enthusiasm, so the likes of Symantec and Trend Micro do not yet support MacOS 10.6 with their antivirus products.Ĭonsequently, K-Staters should delay deployment of Mac OS X 10.6 until a supported antivirus product is available. Apple aficionados are excited about last Friday’s release of Mac OS X 10.6, aka “Snow Leopard”.
