Infected Mac Flashback Continues to Increase

Although Apple had patched the existing gap on the Macintosh, but Flashback malware attacks have also muffled. Even the number of claims continues to rise.

"According to statistics the number of infected Mac BackDoor.Flashback.39 still continue to rise until it reaches 650,000, instead of shrinking as reported previously," wrote Dr. Web, one of the antivirus providers from Russia.

Information reported by Dr. Web of course somewhat different from the data released by Symantec some time ago. Vendors from the United States claims that the Mac is infected Flashback has continued to decline, even now number only about 600,000 in early April 2012.



Different data also had revealed Kaspersky. Kaspersky claims a number of reporters in front of the number of infected Macs are now just settled down 300,000, only half of the report issued by Dr. Web.

As quoted from the computer world, Friday (04/27/2012), despite different opinions, but ultimately agrees with Symantec released the results of research by Dr. Web.

"Now we believe that the research data released by them (Dr Web-red) is quite accurate," said Liam O Murchu, Operations Manager of Security Response at Symantec for NAM.
