Antivirus

What should I install on my Mac computer for the best antivirus protection? Also should I and what kind of protection should I install on my iPhone and iPad. The only thing I have on my Mac is a Malware program I guess you would call it. It is a funny looking "M" next to the Bluetooth symbol at the top right side of my screen.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 12.4

Nothing on any of the devices. Apple devices are extremely secure. Never ever install any third party AV, cleaning or any other “security” or maintenance apps. Doing so will make your device slow, appear buggy, slow and unstable. Please leave your Mac, iPhone, and iPad alone!!!
