Apple has shrugged off security concerns about its latest MacOS version, named Tiger, proving that it's not only leopards that don't change their spots.
Asked whether users could be assured that the OS was secure, product marketing manager Brian Croll said: "There are no absolutes in security but we have done our utmost to ensure that there are no security issues outstanding."
He said that there were no delays between Apple hearing about vulnerabilities and their being patched. "We deal with these things incredibly quickly, and we find that being part of the open source community means that there lots of eyes on the problem so issues get raised and solved quickly. It's been incredibly useful for us," he said.
