AV-Comparatives have released their 2016 Mac Security Test & Review, which focuses primarily on the security of Mac systems. When describing the significance behind the report, AV-Comparatives says:
“. . . it is necessary to understand that a computer virus is only one of a number of different types of malware (malicious software). These days, viruses make up a small percentage of all known malware; Trojans (malicious programs disguised as e.g. games or music files) are much more common. Whilst the number of actual viruses affecting Mac OS X may be negligible or even zero, Mac systems clearly can be infected by Trojans, if users are fooled into installing them.“
