Re: SANS Top 20: Mac OS X?

The problem is that there are enough OS X boxes on networks that are *NOT*
patched, firewalled, and configured that they pose a clear and present danger
to the networks they reside on.

I second that. I've seen more and more OS X servers get nailed lately because they have SSH turned on and bad passwords.

The fact that Mac users are an elitist group that believes themselves invulnerable to viruses/etc doesn't help either.
