VirusBarrier X6
VirusBarrier X6 is an antivirus and malware protection utility for macOS from Intego, a long-established security software vendor. It scans files and folders for viruses, spyware, trojans and other malicious code using signature-based detection and heuristic analysis. The app runs in the background to monitor file access and can be configured to scan on-demand or on a schedule. It includes quarantine functionality, real-time protection, and integration with macOS security features.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about VirusBarrier X6 in our search results, so we cannot confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build exists or the current status of the product. Contact Intego directly to ask whether this version of VirusBarrier is still supported and whether a native Apple Silicon build is available. If the app is no longer maintained by Intego, you should consider switching to an actively developed alternative — popular native-Apple-Silicon antivirus options include Sophos Home, Malwarebytes (Pro edition), Kaspersky Internet Security, and Bitdefender, all of which are under active development and ship native builds. Given that Rosetta 2 is scheduled to be removed in macOS 28 (September 2028), it is important to clarify the product's status and plan your next steps sooner rather than later.
