  Hackers will feed on Vista in 2008, says McAfee
Time: 01:34 EST/06:34 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft will face more than 40 vulnerabilities in Windows Vista next year as the operating system climbs past the 10 percent market-share milestone and malware authors really start to find flaws, a McAfee analyst said today.

"Most of the current malware has ignored Vista," said Craig Schmugar, a threat researcher at McAfee's Avert Lab -- but that's not because the operating system has been frustratingly secure. In fact, Schmugar argued, Vista has been a worthwhile target in the first year of its release.

"These people make their living writing malware or attacking users," he said. "They're driven by financial motivation, and only when market share has an impact will they really work on Vista."
