Thank you for your update.

The ransomware protection features is not available on MacOS platform. However, the alternative is you can refer to the DeepGuard option for MacOS platform. DeepGuard it's basically possible to restrict for example write access to certain locations for any apps or certain apps. Here is some link for your reference:

Amirul, Thanks for the reply. The suggested link is about a Windows system. I couldn't find any information on how to set protected folders on a Mac. Is it possible to do so on a Mac OS?

Thanks
