Installation is as you would expect, quick and easy. While there a few decisions to be made during the install process, they all essentially involve either clicking yes or no, and the ESET installer doesn’t try to install any third-party freeware or bloatware, which is nice, and refreshing. For peace of mind, simply read what it’ asking, and click yes to them, if you want full protection.
Once installed, ESET will update itself to the latest version and download the latest virus and security updates automatically. ESET sets itself up to schedule a quick anti-virus scan at user login and after any signature updates
In terms of appearance and ease of understanding, ESET excels. A simple menu down the left side gives full access to the program's features. A check-mark on a green background signals that everything is working, and this should be the default position you find yourself in after installing and running your first scan.
ESET Cyber Security Pro for Mac does a good job of taking care of your Mac all by itself, routinely updating, scanning in the background and also scanning downloads.

All things considered, ESET Cyber Security Pro for Mac offers great automatic protection, peace of mind, and security. The software doesn’t hog resources, and most of the time you wont even know its there.
