Reactions to Symantec’s security report
mixed 03/23/2005 05:20 PM
Symantec’s recent report on Internet security has drawn the ire of many Mac users who see it as a self-serving ploy to guard its own interests in the $10 million a year security software industry. Many of the mainstream media have been running news stories with headlines that scream “Macintosh Hacker Attacks on the Rise”, while several Mac enthusiast websites went on the defensive, attacking Symantec for trying to boost sales of its Mac software. Symantec claimed in its report that as Apple regains marketshare (highest being 15.82 per cent in 1984 with the Apple II), the number of malicious hacker attacks will also rise. In an article posted on its website today, The Mac Observer (TMO) quotes David Cole, Symantec product management security response director, as saying there is no actual data to prove a connection exists between security risks and increased marketshare. "It's reasonable to assume that with in increase in market share and popularity comes an increased interest by the hacker attacker community to go after the Mac. No platform is absolutely free of vulnerabilities and no users at the end of the day are impervious because they use a particular product," Cole said in the article. Cole said the biggest "holes" for hackers to attack are vulnerabilities in browsers. Between July 1 and December 31, 2004, Symantec documented 13 vulnerabilities affecting Microsoft IE, nine considered high severity. Six vulnerabilities were reported in Opera and none in Apple's Safari browser. TMO says the report called the zero number of confirmed Safari vulnerabilities "somewhat surprising given the increasing popularity of Mac OS X," but suggested that as the browser grows in usage, so will the attacks. Mac users do have a valid point in remaining skeptical of Symantec’s intentions. The $10 million security software industry has been so far dominated by Symantec and McAfee, both of whom now face a drop in marketshare as Microsoft enters the security game with the acquisitions of Sybari, a company that specialises in combating viruses and spam, and Giant, which creates anti-spyware. Microsoft aims to be a serious force in the security software industry and it makes sense to cut out the middle man. Perhaps Mac users would rather their enhanced security products came from Apple itself, rather than third party vendors who seem to have a vested interest in finding new “threats”.
