Debunks macOS security myths

I don’t know where this myth came from, probably from the statement that macOS does not need antiviruses, or from a relatively small amount of news about macOS vulnerabilities. Whatever the basis, this is a false statement, and in this article I will give a few facts that should dissuade the proponents of the macOS invulnerability myth. 

Let's start with the Pwn2Own 2018 conference. Pwn2Own is an annual white hacker competition held since 2007. As part of the competition, hackers from around the world are trying to hack into operating systems, browsers, go beyond the virtual environment and much more.Ream more:https://technurtury.com/openclass/it/macsecurity-net-debunks-myths-of-macos-safety.html

It’s also about social engineering in its pure form, which is a relatively effortless vector that might be just as effective. For instance, DigitsPro email scam is aimed at defrauding people of money by forging a failed delivery notification. More info:
