The Mac user community should no longer feel as safe. Mac fanatics used to claim that the Mac was "safer". The Windows crowd would retort that it was only because there were a whole lot less Macs so it wasn't worth the time for "black hats" to bother with.
Well, the malware is heading to Macs too. One person accepting a challenge to hack a Swedish user's Mac OS X computer found that he could hack a Mac in less than 30 minutes. The successful hacker says that there are a lot of unpublished exploits of the Mac OS X.
My point is not to bash the Mac, but to remind all that system and data security is a concern for computer users of all types.
