I am not avocating anyone's destruction. I am just happy to see a plate full of crow being feed to the MAC crowd at long last. They so deserve it after all their years of bashing all the non-Apple things in the world. Apple is a fine company and probably won't be destroyed by being NUMBER ONE in reported security vulnerabilities.(Two notches ABOVE Microsoft by the way.)
Apple: Vulnerabilities reported and patched.
Microsoft: Vulnerabilities exploited in the wild, used in attacks on machines that cost billions of dollars in downtime, hijacked machines and networks, IT labor, and lost data.
Is this a distinction you’re having a hard time understanding?
You sure are getting exercised about a difference of 0.7%.
I just read the actual report, not just read the article. Here are some facts:
Apple is 0.7% ahead of Microsoft on the list for reported vulnerabilities.
Microsoft is two places head of Apple on vulnerabilities for which there is an actual exploit, and this includes proof-of-concept (which is most Apple exploits).
The top 10 active, in-the-wild-doing-bad-stuff-right-now malware for each of seven different categories were for Windows.
The headline looks bad for Apple, actually reading the report looks bad for Microsoft.
