Panda’s Anti-Virus for Mac solution incorporates two scan engines: an on-access scanner, or resident protection, that protects the computer at all times and alerts the user to any security incident and an on-demand scanner that lets users scan the complete system or specific components at any time. The rapid increase in use of Apple-powered devices – iPhones, iPods, iPads – is also making the Mac platform a much more attractive target.” “When Apple reaches 15 percent marketshare worldwide, which Panda expects will happen very soon, we predict that hackers will begin to aggressively target attacks against this platform. “We are approaching a tipping point where it will soon be financially viable for cybercriminals to target their efforts at Mac users,” says Ivan Fermon, senior vice president of product management, Panda Security. Additionally, Apple sold 14.1 million iPhones and 4.19 million iPads during the quarter – all devices that SHOULD be protected. In its most recent quarter ending in September 2010, Apple sold 3.89 million Macs during, a 27 percent unit increase over the year-ago quarter. The new solution helps protect Mac users from malware affecting Mac OS and Mac OS X and scans files and email, detecting and eliminating or blocking many types of threats, including viruses, Trojans, spyware, keyloggers, adware, hacking tools, botnets, dialers, scareware and other threats.
