Article title: Mac and Linux users will become important targets of hackers. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Eugene Kaspersky, a Russian security expert and founder of Kaspersky, said Mac and Linux users will become important targets of hacker attacks in the next few years. Linux and Mac users have been enjoying a secure operating environment in the past. some users believe that malicious virus writers and hackers will not aim at OS X, because compared with Windows, the market share of this system is too small.

Others believe that Mac OS itself is more secure than Windows, making it difficult for hackers to attack. Apple once published an advertisement in the UK saying that Mac is not afraid of viruses, and it does not know whether it will attract dissatisfaction from hackers.

Mr. Kaspersky continued to mention that the current system has design flaws. Mac and Linux are not as secure as users think, but hackers have not spent much effort on this, they will also be vulnerable to attacks in the future.
