It may be time to think about installing some extra protection if you use a Mac computer. The MacOS does have some protection built-into the platform, but there are situation where that may not be enough. It's pretty easy to stay safe if you limit what and where you install into your computer and keep things updated, but if you have less attentive users in the house, extra security may be best.
