You first seem like you were wanting to know about cyber security, but then it seems like you have made up your mind about getting macOS?

macOS is fine, but it is not really what you are after for cyber security. What you really are looking for is Kali Linux, Parrott Linux or Blackhat Linux. I am not meaning to be offensive at all, but did you even Google this before asking? I said that not to be mean, but to tell you that if this is the field that you are entering, then you better be ready to find your own answers to problems with technology.

Having said that, macOS is notoriously difficult or tedious at least to get a Ready pen testing setup.
Thank you,
