Symantec Warns of OS X Security Threat
The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Symantec,
realizing that Apple sales are on the rise and that Apple's marketshare is growing, are warning that OS X may soon become a target for hackers.
As you can probably tell, my take on this is that it is a marketing move more than anything to worry about. In the close to 10 years that I've been a Mac devotee, I've only had any sort of infection twice and each time it was a Word Macro Virus that had limited effects for me (saving all my .doc files as templates), but proved problematic for my Windows friends who had infected computers (which were often rendered useless by the virus). OS X may very well become a target for worms, viruses, and hackers, but it'll still remain 99% more secure than Windows.
