After install it asked to ‘reboot’ the MAC but it only did a shutdown, are more users having this feature?

!ot!
I think the ‘mobile’ division needs a completely other way of security than the traditional AV world.

On the AV level one first has to detect ‘malicious’ behavior in what ever app is around there, with the current number of apps and the limited tests from certain app providers it’s impossible to protect your data based on signature stuff.

Mobile thingies need protection of user (privacy) data. So on every place where the device stores ‘user-data’ it needs to guard access to it.
Phonebook, Pictures, SMS/MMS, chat(logs), camera access, Geolocation, network access etc etc.

If it has stolen your data and hours/days/weeks later your ‘AV’ notifies your your already to late.
