The bottom line here is that Mac owners can no longer take it for granted that their machines are safe from malware without running some type of security software. Of course there’s still a LOT more malware out there targeting Windows PCs than Macs, but that’s little consolation considering it only takes one malware infection to ruin your entire day, especially if you get it by ransomware. Recent studies indicate that the number of successful malware attacks on Macs has skyrocketed in recent years, and the problem is getting worse by the day.Īnd truth be told, Macs aren’t really as resistant to malware as previously thought.
One of Apple’s most successful marketing claims has always been that simply owning a Mac instead of a PC can help keep your computer safe from malware.įor many years that claim was valid, but unfortunately that’s no longer the case.
