Facebook will take down our app because we don't install antivirus on macOS

- gumboshoes 1y agoSo install anti-virus software on the Macs? I'm not seeing the issue.
- verdverm 1y agoClamAV is free and acceptable for SOC2
- kvz 1y agoWe do run that on our Linux servers. For macbooks, ClamAV makes very little sense. Besides, they mandate we centrally manage that, too.
- verdverm 1y agoSOC2 compliance requires AV on Mac too not sure why you think it is unnecessary, generally speaking The choice is not hard, either install AV or get removed. You're not going to change their policy
- kvz 1y agoThe actual requirement is not: a centralized console where macOS antivirus updates are pushed to all user devices. We take security very seriously but this is not the way.
- kvz 1y agoThe full story didn't fit in the title. They want evidence of the antivirus updates for our macbooks being centrally managed by some tool (quote-unquote: WSUS). I get this is how some enterprises operate, but for our small shop we're talking a handful of macbooks that have access to even anything. And even so the people who operate those are contractually obligated to run a very tight ship (encrypted disks, auto updates (which includes XProtect, apple's native antivirus so to speak), 2FA on all services, etc), tunnelling on unprotected wifi, etc. We sent evidence of all of this. But they really want centrally managed antivirus for our macbooks.
