Intego Backup Assistant Agent is a launchAgent component of Intego VirusBarrier, the security and backup suite for macOS.

A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionThis is a helper component of Intego VirusBarrier, not a standalone app — it is updated as part of the main VirusBarrier installation, not separately. Since a native Apple Silicon build of this agent has been confirmed in the wild, Intego has already shipped a Universal Binary version of VirusBarrier that includes the native agent. Update Intego VirusBarrier to the latest version through Intego's own update mechanism: open VirusBarrier, go to Help or Preferences, and check for updates. Alternatively, visit Intego's website to download the latest VirusBarrier installer, which will include the native agent. Once VirusBarrier itself is on a current native build, the agent will run natively as well — no separate action is needed.
