The Norton Internet Security Dual Protection for Mac Software from Symantec is a virus protection application for Mac and Windows computer systems. The software protects OS X against viruses, security vulnerabilities, and Internet worms. It features a built-in, two-way firewall that protects you from outside attacks and prevents unauthorized packets from being transmitted from your computer to the outside world.
The full version of Norton Internet Security 2010 for Windows is also included, allowing Mac owners who run Windows via Boot Camp, Parallels, or VMWare Fusion to protect it from the viruses and malware that plague the ubiquitous operating system. A one-year update subscription is included.
