The slow and steady evolution of cross-platform malware

The slow and steady evolution of cross-platform malware

As the share of Macs online rises, so does interest from criminals. They will do to the Mac platform (albeit on a smaller scale) what they've been doing to the Windows platform for years: pick away at vulnerabilities in the OS, in related code, and in third-party apps, change their tactics regularly, and step up their social engineering efforts. Malware on Macs is likely to continue as a persistent low-level threat.

As part of that slow, steady evolution, you're likely to see the stakes and the intensity level rise.
