Apple Security Watch
Systems operating in low asset utilization are always presumed to be able to secure systems, regardless of whether they can or can not withstand any attack, do not capture the attention of the creators of malicious software.
Mac OS X software is not exactly a low utilization, but so far has been far more profitable to look for problems in Windows crackers. But Apple's system in the last five years tripled its market share touching 10% now global, so is becoming a juicy dish for creators of malware . Is this a real problem for MacOS?
Charlie Miller , an expert in finding security problems in MacOS, said recently that the main problem was that the system randomly allocates memory to applications, so you can access the data in memory. A problem that seems to be resolved in Snow Leopard. In any case the traditional strength of Unix systems derived from the virus may no longer be enough to other types of malware . Will Apple live up to solving such problems?

Come on Apple, you can!
One need not be so alarmist, the same problems that will have Apple OSX security question will be the same as any other UNIX or derivatives, is neither more nor less secure.
Knowing how to get infected is by pirated software asks for the root password. That's problem against that user and there is no operating system is protected.
Beware what you think about Apple security?
