Concur. McAfee VSE 8.6 for Mac works well. It updates
gracefully from a standard McAfee repository using the latest EPO-Dat (unlike
older versions of “Virex” which required significant tweaking of the repository).
I would also recommend configuring the McAfee installs to run
scans only at scheduled times (rather than “On Access”) in order to minimize
CPU usage.

My experience with NAV/SAV over the past few
years until last year were such that I would recommend against using it. Also,
their tech support is not to be recommended either.
McAfee works well, and as one respondent mentioned you can run an ePO server on
a virtual Windows XP instance on VMware Fusion on an Intel Mac.
I have seen good reports about Sophos on OSX.

First time post here. I have been reading for about a year now. I
am an Admin for a small network for the Print Factory in FCI Sandstone which is
part of Federal Prison Industries, aka UNICOR. I have 10 Mac clients
Leopard 10.5.8, 1 Leopard Server 10.5.8 running OD, and 2 XP boxes.
My network DOES NOT have internet access and never will. I been
running this network for 2 years now and learned a lot with it.
My number one goal is security with the Inmates Users network accounts.
Since last fall when UNICOR's Central Office in DC IT Dept found out that
I have setup my own network, they been training me to use DOJ Standards.
We all know that any Government Standards are written for the Windows.
Central Office wants me to install Anti-Virus of some kind. I tried
using ClamXAV on my Mac and it uses a lot of Memory up. After a scan, I
only have 20 megs left out of 2 gigs. Does anyone know of a good
Anti-Virus software that can be updated without access in the internet?
Also, Is there a way to "hide" or "read only"
the Hard Drive from my Inmates Accounts? I tried using Simple Finder but
its too limited.
Thanks for reading...
