I agree, you don't need an antivirus on a Mac!We are an all Apple household for personal devices which works well from a security + ease of use stand point. The system comes with anti-malware which you will probably never see because it runs in the background. I don't really mess around with other anti-malware/virus programs because of this. I think they do more harm than good to a system. Since we mostly use safari we use Wipr on our Macs and iOS deices as an add blocker. It doesn't go to all the great lengths some blockers do to prevent adds but I haven't really had it break sites either. We use the built in password manager called iCloud Keychain so we can store all of the credentials including TTOP codes and passkeys. These can also be shared with family members since we have family sharing enabled through iCloud.
The best advice is just general good computer hygiene. Don't click on links in text messages/emails, don't download programs from untrusted sites, be careful who you interact with online.
