Security & VPN
Macs were known for being pretty secure out of the box, but the changing cybersecurity landscape means downloading the latest Mac security software is now vital, if you value your data and privacy. Luckily, we list some of best Mac security software, including firewall and encryption software. Our great Mac security apps include Malwarebytes for Mac, ESET Cyber Security, Hotspot Shield for Mac, and amazing Dashlane for Mac, KeePass for Mac (LINK), and the award-winning LastPass for Mac. Discover our full range today and download any, or all of them, for free, right here on FileHippo.
Furthemore, if you value your online privacy, security, and want to keep potential snoopers at bay, then a VPN (Virtual Private Network) is exactly the piece of software you need. VPN apps work by creating a private internet network, or ‘tunnel’ to a server. The server can be located in the same country as you, or anywhere in the world. All data traffic sent over the VPN is encrypted, so it can’t be intercepted. We list a great range of free VPN software and many of the publishers offer paid-for upgrades if you require even greater security or extra data allowance. Download one today and maximise your online privacy. Read our guide about our top 5 VPN software downloads
