## History

Co-founded by former CEO Laurent Marteau and Jean-Paul Florencio and based in Paris, France, Intego released its first antivirus product in 1997: Rival, an antivirus for Mac OS 8.[2] Two years later in July 1999, Intego released NetBarrier, the first personal security software suite for Mac OS 8.[3][4] Then in October 2000, Intego released its legacy antivirus software, VirusBarrier 1.0, for Mac OS 8 and Mac OS 9.[5][6]

Intego launched The Mac Security Blog, a blog that covers Mac security news, Apple security updates, Mac malware alerts, as well as news and opinion pieces related to Apple products, in mid-2007.[2] The company launched a podcast in October 2017, called the Intego Mac Podcast.[7]

Intego released its current X9 version of antivirus and security software in June 2016,[8] which has since had several under-the-hood updates, including compatibility with new macOS releases and Apple silicon processors.[9]

Kape Technologies announced in July 2018 that it was acquiring Intego to "enhance [Kape's] arsenal of products in cyber protection."[10]

Intego released a Windows version of its antivirus software in July 2020.[11]

Intego's newest product is Intego Privacy Protection, a VPN solution for macOS and Windows that launched circa June 2021.[12]
