Welp, maybe I’ll finally have to get around to installing some sort of anti-virus/malware software after 20 years of macOS and/or Linux. At least the system architecture isn’t quite as much of a dumpster fire as Windows’ is, but nothing is invulnerable when there’s enough incentive
Naw. This is just FUD. I mean it’s coming from Accenture ffs.
Keep calm and keep computing.
I agree, Accenture is not a reliable source.
Yeah I’m not exactly in a hurry here, but more widespread malware is still just a question of incentive. macOS isn’t invulnerable, it’s just mainly been a smaller and less easy target so it’s not gotten the same sort of attention as Windows
Every software has holes. Not saying macOS is bullet proof. But it’s much harder to infect thanks to its Unix core and the fact the entire OS is on a read only partition. That with their own anti malware tool (Gatekeeper) that took on a much more active roll in macOS’s defenses come Ventura.
I’m far more worried Apple replaces macOS or closes it just like all their other OSes and we end up bouncing between jailbreaks.
