They say you don’t need an antivirus because they know people hate antivirus software. Apple markets these products as virus-free. Mac OS X software has more high-risk vulnerabilities than all versions of Windows put together. As Bitdefender CEO Bogden Botezatu explained in a 2015 Digital Trends article: Every operating system is susceptible to viruses. You’ve also probably heard (most likely from a smarmy Mac user) that Macs don’t get viruses. Windows operating systems are running on over 90 percent of all computers currently in use, making them a larger target for cybercriminals and bored internet troublemakers. This is even truer if you’re a Windows user. If you’ve been poking around on internet-connected computers for a while, there’s a very good chance you’ve gotten at least one of the hundreds of millions of malware floating around. Let’s face it: Malware is pernicious, annoying, and quite often dangerous.
