"system tools for tackling malware were essentially limited to XProtect and MRT"

When did those arrive? On what OS versions?



XProtect has been there since Snow Leopard, released thirteen years ago: https://www.macworld.com/article/199817/snowleopard_malware....


Xprotect is part of GateKeeper, which arrived in Mountain Lion (and late versions of Lion).


MRT is the Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool which has been distributed via Windows Update since around 2005.
