Mac Security Part II: It’s a Numbers Game | |

A few years ago, OS X had an edge in security, thanks to a Unix foundation that meant some serious sorts of malware (but not all) could be blocked by a request to enter a password before installation. However, current vulnerabilities and attack methods mean that effectively “all the Unix protections can be circumvented,” Mr. Mogull says. | ||
