Based on research across established dark web forums, threat actors are targeting macOS, with exploits trading for millions of dollars
Apple used to brag about how Macs didn’t get viruses. I used to laugh because it wasn’t that they were that much more secur but because their market share was too small to be a profitable target.
Now they’ve cultivated the perfect target user base. A large collection of tech ignorant or adverse people who have lots of money to burn.
Well, they were significantly more secure by default than Windows due to various design measures including the separation of user land. And old OS9 was friggin brilliant for a web facing machine back in the day.
OS9 ran absolutely everything with full privileges. It was not even remotely secure. It was basically Windows 95-level security.
