Security & Privacy

An article in Processor Magazine takes a close look at the risks of using Macs in enterprise environments, and how to protect them against viruses and malware. Mentioning Intego’s software, the article looks at the need to protect not only Macs, but also Windows computers on a corporate network that may be infected by Macs passing on dangerous files unwittingly.

The article says, “According to research firm Gartner, Macs made up 8.1% of PC market share for the third quarter last year, something that seemed unthinkable only five years ago. However, increased market share, along with Apple’s switch to Intel, has brought something less palatable with it, and that something is malware.”

As we know, that market share is growing, and more and more businesses that were previously Windows-only are adding Macs to their stables of computers, and need to have full protection from viruses, malware and hackers.
