Security News > 2023 > July > macOS Under Attack: Examining the Growing Threat and User Perspectives

Inventive attackers are specifically targeting Mac systems, as seen with the "Geacon" Cobalt Strike tool attack.

To understand the state of cybersecurity on the Mac, the Moonlock team, a dedicated group of MacPaw's researchers and engineers focused on the cybersecurity needs of Mac users, conducted a survey.

Despite the growing risks, many Mac users still take their cybersecurity lightly.

Just think about it, Moonlock's Mac Security Survey 2023 reveals that every third Mac user believes their data is of no interest to cybercriminals.

57% of Mac users either agree or hesitate to disagree with the statement, "Malware does not exist on macOS.".

It is critical that Mac users remain vigilant, make cybersecurity a priority, and stay informed about the evolving threat landscape.
