Security will get worse before it gets better

Security will get worse before it gets better | Cloud Central | Scoop.it
The damage caused by threats and the number of Net-dependent critical systems are on the rise. Yet we still haven't created a safer Internet
Peter Azzopardi's insight:

Although there is room for improvement the internet will never be anything even remotely close to 100% secure. So long as there is money to be made via  fraudulent ways it will always attract the wrong crowd. Best we can do is be vigilant.

Cam Ward's curator insight, March 21, 5:18 AM

This blog post makes the interesting point that as more and more essential infrastructure is migrated online the potential fallout from a malicious attack is increasing to the stage where even essential services like electricity, water, and transportation are all exposed to potential attacks.

Yes, Apple Really Does Have A Serious Problem With Computer Viruses And Malware - Forbes

Yes, Apple Really Does Have A Serious Problem With Computer Viruses And Malware - Forbes | Cloud Central | Scoop.it
As those with memories stretching back a couple of decades will recall the various forms of computer malware, the viruses, trojans and the like, were things that affected Microsoft Windows users.
Peter Azzopardi's insight:

The author is being rather kind IMO. Malware, trojans, adware, all this stuff is there for one reason and one reason alone. Money! In this case via illicit means. And yes MacOS and iOS are certainly worth targetting now.

 

The real difference here is that MS knows Windows has holes, but has a dedicated taskforce to deal and patch ASAP. Apple, OTOH, never had to deal with such a situation and have been caught with their pants down. I think it is a cause for concern but by no means irrepairable.
