Personal Consumer Issues • Bought Apple Mac Air. Geek Squad is putting old windows 10 lap top hard drive on new Mac. Afraid security?

I keep searching about security for the AirMac and if a Norton security or similar is needed.
Apple provides a fairly robust cyber-security system that just comes with the computer. You can read about it at https://support.apple.com/guide/securit ... d47bd8/web.

Hackers do go after MacOS deployments, but Apple's built-in measures are pretty good. Good security practices are important, though. The usual: don't click on unfamiliar messages, keep your confidential documents (and passwords) in encrypted storages, etc. You might want to have Geek Squad enable whole-disk encryption on the Air.
