Okay, question : how good is this firm at sifting through IP spoofing and such in order to determine where an attack actually originated from ?
And another question : since when were uneducated users NOT the principle client base for malware authors ?
Sorry, but I am not impressed by anything in this "report".
This seems odd to me, Symantec seems to insist that regardless of the fact that Macs are now running BSD Unix that they are still very vulnerable to attack. This sounds like FUD to me that is crafted to scare the unwashed into firewall / spyware tools / virus protection on an architecture that is has a high degree of immunity.
