Segundo um relatório feito pela Symantec, a Microsoft lidera a lista dos sistemas operativos mais seguros. O segundo classificado é o RedHat. O Mac OS X surge em 3º.
Como foi o ranking elaborado e em que factos se baseou a Symantec:

Windows Mac OSX tiverem quase o mesmo numero de vunerabilidades. Embora no windows 12 fossem "high priority" e no Mac apenas 1. Depois o critério (que é meio estranho) baseia-se na capacidade (velocidade) de resposta e aí a maior empresa ficou à frente.
Alguém sabe que tipo de vunerabilidades se fala? Este estudo deve ter o minimo de credibilidade certo?
internetnews.com disse:Microsoft is frequently dinged for having insecure products, with security holes and vulnerabilities. But Symantec (Quote), no friend of Microsoft, said in its latest research report that when it comes to widely-used operating systems, Microsoft is doing better overall than its leading commercial competitors.
Como foi o ranking elaborado e em que factos se baseou a Symantec:
internetnews.com disse:The report found that Microsoft (Quote) Windows had the fewest number of patches and the shortest average patch development time of the five operating systems it monitored in the last six months of 2006.
During this period, 39 vulnerabilities, 12 of which were ranked high priority or severe, were found in Microsoft Windows and the company took an average of 21 days to fix them. It's an increase of the 22 vulnerabilities and 13-day turnaround time for the first half of 2006 but still bested the competition handily.
Red Hat Linux was the next-best performer, requiring an average of 58 days to address a total of 208 vulnerabilities. However, this was a significant increase in both problems and fix time over the first half of 2006, when there were 42 vulnerabilities in Red Hat and the average turnaround was 13 days.
The one bright spot in all of this is that of the 208 Red Hat vulnerabilities, the most of the top five operating systems, only two were considered high severity, 130 were medium severity, and 76 were considered low.
Then there's Mac OS X. Despite the latest TV ads ridiculing the security in Vista with a Matrix-like Agent playing the UAC in Vista, Apple (Quote) has nothing to brag about. Symantec found 43 vulnerabilities in Mac OS X and a 66 day turnaround on fixes. Fortunately, only one was high priority.
