Malwarebytes claims that the average number of threats detected on a Mac has surpassed Windows "by a great deal." Malwarebytes says that there was a 400 percent increase in the overall prevalence of Mac threats in 2019, but part of that increase is attributable to an increase in the Malwarebytes for Mac user base, which is why the threats per endpoint metric was used for comparison purposes. The Mac threats were up quite a bit from the 4.8 threats detected per endpoint in 2018. Malwarebytes detected 11 threats per endpoint for its Mac users, compared to 5.8 for its Windows users. Antivirus software developer Malwarebytes today shared its State of Malware Report for 2020, which suggests that Mac malware is growing much more common.įor the first time ever, Macs outpaced Windows PCs in the number of threats detected per endpoint.
