The security programs are needed and because I do not have the latest update. The program from McAfee will not function properly, this is not right on the consumer side of the equation.
Thank you for the assistance

Hi,
Go to the Apple Menu > About This Mac to see exactly which Mac you have, then find out if it is compatible with 10.14/Mojave here: How to get old versions of macOS - Apple Support and use the upgrade link if it is.

IMHO, it is a good thing that McAfee will not run. You do not need third party apps that claim to protect, clean, manage, etc.

Installing this app will slow down your computer and can also cause other operational problems. The Mac's OS has its own built in protections and because the OS is write protected, it cannot be changed or infected. Use the McAfee uninstaller app to completely uninstall it and know that your Mac is safe to use.
need to install 10.14.1 to receive upgragrades to McAfee
