An unjailbroken iPad is pretty close to totally immune. Jailbreak it and you can still stay immune but only by good configuration changes from the default settings.

There is no device that is totally immune to viruses if it can load software.

No. And the popularity of iPhones is increasing the risk. New malware constantly means new IOS updates.

My Mac users get scareware popups on websites and sometimes install useless utilities, but Malewarebytes for Mac uninstall most everything (formerly AdwareMedic).

Maybe not an overhaul of machine even with hardware security and to still add on another software secure layer as in below SecureMac covrring the scan of its posture and guarding ones privacy too..with its recent makeover<br />

What browser do you use? &nbsp;The first line of defense against attacks is some kind of adblocker. &nbsp;That will mitigate the majority of modern attacks. &nbsp;For your Macbook, the 2nd thing to do is to turn off all Sharing in System Preferences.<br />
<br />
Stop using bluetooth and that will reduce your attack surface. &nbsp;Also, don't go on some random WiFi network. &nbsp;Make sure you use HTTPS links wherever you can.<br />
<br />
If you don't want to be attacked on your iPhone or iPad, turn off Wifi when you use ad supported apps. &nbsp;That will block the ads that come through Wifi. &nbsp;Don't download junk Apps and you won't have as many problems.

Hi<br />
<br />
I am so sick of the plague of horrid agents threatening to attack my iPhone and Macbook. I'm concerned that some pages could give me viruses or malicious infiltrators.<br />
<br />
I wonder, for the sake of a tablet intended for wi-fi use, mostly video, are there any that are totally immune to problems? (totally)<br />
<br />
Thanks

Any tablets immune to viruses?

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.

Laptops Notebooks

A tablet computer is a mobile computer with a touchscreen display, circuitry, and battery in a single device. Tablets come equipped with sensors, including cameras, a microphone, and an accelerometer, and the touchscreen display uses the recognition of finger or stylus gestures replacing the usage of the mouse and keyboard. They usually feature on-screen, pop-up virtual keyboards for typing. Tablets may include physical buttons for basic features such as speaker volume and power, and ports for network communications and battery charging. Tablets are typically larger than smartphones or personal digital assistants.

Spyware is software that aims to gather information about a person or organization without their knowledge and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer's consent, or that asserts control over a computer without the consumer's knowledge; it has also come to include programs that engage in various kinds of electronic fraud. Anti-spyware is software that removes or blocks that software; some common vendors include Malwarebytes, McAfee, Spybot-Search and Destroy, Ad-Aware and BitDefender.

Anti-Spyware

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Anti-Virus Apps

The cyber security specialization covers the fundamental concepts underlying the construction of secure systems, from the hardware to the software to the human-computer interface, with the use of cryptography to secure interactions. Cyber security refers to the protection of personal or organizational information or information resources from unauthorized access, attacks, theft, or data damage. This includes controlling physical access to the hardware, as well as protecting against the harm that may come via network access, data and code injection, and due to malpractice by operators, whether intentional, accidental, or due to them being tricked into deviating from secure procedures.
