## 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.[4][5] Then in October 2000, Intego released its legacy antivirus software, VirusBarrier 1.0, for Mac OS 8 and Mac OS 9.[6][7]

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.[8]

Intego released its current X9 version of antivirus and security software in June 2016,[9] which has since had several under-the-hood updates, including compatibility with new macOS releases and Apple silicon processors.[10]

Kape Technologies announced in July 2018 that it was acquiring Intego to "enhance Kape's arsenal of products in cyber protection".[11][3]

Intego released a Windows version of its antivirus software in July 2020.[12]

In 2021, Intego's launched Intego Privacy Protection, a VPN solution for macOS and Windows.[13]
