![]() ![]() To prove my point, try doing a search for "antimalware" or "antivirus" on the Apple support website. Yet the evidence continually points in the opposite direction. Apple's done a great job coercing the last decade of Mac buyers that malware just doesn't exist on Macs. Salespeople at Best Buy and other retailers that I've encountered suffer from the same misleading tunnel vision. So this begs the question: how has Apple gotten a free pass on the falsehood that its OS X (and now iOS) users just don't need anti-malware software? As an IT professional who has personally cleaned off numerous Macs each year for the past 2-3 years, it really irks me that Apple still hasn't admitted that this falsehood is endangering an entire slice of our computing society.Įven though we don't push this mantra at our company, knowing full well it's a borked belief, you won't find the same honesty from any Apple Store employees. Their risk of forced entry or other crimes are leagues lower than in congested urban areas (like my neck of the woods, Chicago) but they still follow plain commonsense. Yet they most likely still use locks on all of their doors, and keep them locked shut at night. Likewise, sizable portions of American society lives out in rural areas where crime and theft are almost unheard of. ![]() ![]() Even so, she wouldn't think of ditching her safety belt, no matter how safe the cars claim to be. Not only do the company's vehicles arguably receive some of the highest safety ratings in the States, but their policy of across-the-board all wheel drive is another nicety I love about them. If there is no public information on those weak areas, hackers will find the system more difficult to penetrate and will eventually delay or postpone its malicious objective.My girlfriend was on the prowl for a new vehicle not too long ago, and decided on a Subaru. Typically, a hacker’s approach in exploiting a system begins with identifying its known vulnerabilities. ![]() Obscurity means keeping the underlying system’s security loopholes a secret to all but the most important stakeholders, such as key developers, designers, project managers or owners. STO is based on the idea that any information system is secure as long as security vulnerabilities remain hidden, making it less likely that they will be exploited by a malicious attacker. Understanding the Security Through Obscurity (STO) Security through obscurity aims to secure a system by deliberately hiding or concealing its security flaws. Security through obscurity (STO) is a process of implementing security within a system by enforcing secrecy and confidentiality of the system's internal design architecture. What is the Security Through Obscurity (STO)? - Definition Nếu không có thông tin nào về những lĩnh vực yếu, hacker sẽ tìm ra hệ thống khó khăn hơn để thâm nhập và cuối cùng sẽ trì hoãn hoặc trì hoãn mục tiêu độc hại của nó. Thông thường, cách tiếp cận của các hacker khai thác một hệ thống bắt đầu với việc xác định lỗ hổng đã biết của nó. phương tiện tối tăm giữ gìn an ninh hệ thống cơ bản của sơ hở một bí mật cho tất cả nhưng các bên liên quan quan trọng nhất, chẳng hạn như các nhà phát triển quan trọng, thiết kế, quản lý dự án hoặc chủ sở hữu. STO được dựa trên ý tưởng rằng bất kỳ hệ thống thông tin là an toàn càng lâu càng lỗ hổng bảo mật vẫn còn tiềm ẩn, làm cho nó ít khả năng là họ sẽ bị khai thác bởi một âm mưu tấn công. ![]()
