it is built in and the best, just let it take care of itself and practice sensible browsing and application downloading habits, also, do not pirate applications. you are now virus safe.

Is there actually a built in anti-virus program in osx? "All devices must have antivirus software running at the current version and be configured for auto-updates. Computers must be virus free prior to connecting to the USAP network and maintain the current DAT version as updates are available."
