We firmly believe that all computer users should be work to protect themselves from viruses and spyware by installing an anti-virus application. While Information Technology (IT) works to protect Bowdoin-issued computers, we can only make recommendations for all personal and home computers.
There are a number of good, free anti-virus applications available for macOS and Windows for home use if you choose not to pay for something. For personal Apple computers, we recommend Avast Security for Mac and for personal Windows computers, Microsoft's built-in Defender is a good product to use.
For macOS, Avast Security features an anti-malware scanner, web and email shields, and a wireless security scanner at no cost.
