It’s a generational battle between two reliable Mac security solutions. We have the young lion, Airo, going up against the grizzled old veteran, Sophos Home.

Airo aims to be unobtrusive, allowing you to carry on with your daily business while it performs full system scans, whereas Sophos Home looks to be a more complete solution, offering a package filled with extra features.
