ByteSecurity Antivirus overview

ByteSecurity Antivirus protects you against threats which aren’t after your computer they’re after your identity and your money. These days hackers "phish," "spearphish," and "whale" to target you specifically. Combine these with other threats like router hijacking, and your identity is at great risk of being stolen. We don’t slow your computer down with big updates; instead, our continual stream of automatic micro updates always keeps your protection current. More people around the world trust ByteSecurity for their security. That means better security for all of us. The reason is simple: we see and react to more data from more users, so we can make your protection better.

What's New Version 1.0.6: • _Adware engine_ bugfix That says it all. I have two of its ad notices - disguised as official Apple Security & Privacy notifications telling me to DOWNLOAD NOW - floating on my Desktop, right now, and I haven't even _downloaded_ this thing, let alone _installed_ it! And I can't get rid of them!

This is the same scammy vendor also known as Genius Apps, which posts other "free" ware such as Firewall CyberGuard that pops up fake security alert about "Apple Security & Privacy Preference" being compromised in order to entice victims into downloading this ByteSecurity Antivirus software. Do a "whois 1stbytesecurity.com" and "whois geniusapps.online". Both are registered via Namecheap with WhoisGuard on. Before you ever download any software by "1st Byte Security" and "Genius Apps", question why some software claiming to safeguard your computer's security is actually creating bogus security alert while trying to hide the fact they are one and the same entity. Do you really want to fall for nonsensical claims like "More people around the world trust ByteSecurity for their security"? Do you?

What's up with these fake users and (probably also) bogus reviews on their web site?
