OS X and iOS Malware is Finally Here!
While Macs seem to be notorious for being secure by default and unable to be infected, the myth may have just been busted.
Palo Alto Networks has publicly released evidence of a new family of malware called WireLurker that threatens the integrity of iOS and OS X devices. According to the young security company founded in 2005 from California, this is the largest scale attack on OS X through trojan-infected applications. The first evidence of the malware is from May 2014.
