Abingdon, UK, 29 July 2011 – Kaspersky Lab has announced the release of an update for Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 for Mac that is fully compatible with Apple’s recently released Mac OS X Lion operating system.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 for Mac users will have already received an automatic update, seamlessly upgrading the product so that it is compatible with the new version of the operating system, while maintaining the highest level of security offered by Kaspersky Lab.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 for Mac utilises malware signature detection methods, as well as cutting-edge cloud-based detection technologies to protect users’ Macs from new and unknown threats.
