  Researchers: Security Holiday Over for Mac Users
Time: 01:05 EST/06:05 GMT | News Source: PC World | Posted By: Erick Cordero

The flurry of security issues involving Apple's Mac OS X over the past few days once again hammers home the fact that no technology platform is invulnerable to attacks, whatever the perception might otherwise be, security analysts said.

All it takes is a certain level of interest on the part of hackers and security researchers to increase the threats associated with any platform, they said. "All software has bugs, and a certain percentage of those bugs will be security vulnerabilties," said Ira Winkler, an independent security analyst and author of the book Spies Among Us. And given enough of an installed base and interest in a technology, the likelihood of such vulnerabilties being discovered also increases significantly, said Pete Lindstrom, an analyst at Spire Security in Malvern, Pennsylvania.
