Android versus iOS Security
http://www.theverge.com/2013/7/16/4527326/...us-ios-securityI was just doing research on Android versus iOS security and was surprised by what I discovered. Did you know that for every 1 Android vulnerability there were about 9 iOS vulnerabilities? Now, this probably shouldn't come as a surprise considering iOS has always had security issues. In fact, it was so bad that you could jailbreak an iOS device by just visiting a web site at one time - it doesn't get much simpler than that. So it's kind of peculiar to hear Phil Schiller criticize Android security and telling people to be safe out there when iOS is basically one of the most insecure mobile OS's ever created. Phil probably doesn't realize that one of the benefits of being an open source OS is that the top security researches from all over the world have gone through the Android code base and picked it apart. Anyway, let's get to the vulnerabilities.
Total iOS Vulnerabilities 2007-2013: 238
Total Android Vulnerabilities 2009-2013: 27
Ratio: 8.8
A Symantec report
http://www.symantec.com/content/en/us/ente...91018.en-us.pdfAnd a comment about the report:
It’s known fact that iOS has tonnes more vulnerabilities than Android. From Symantec 2013 report:
“Mobile vulnerabilities have little or no correlation to mobile malware. In fact, while Apple’s iOS had the most documented vulnerabilities in 2012, there was only one threat created for [it],”
“Compare this to the Android OS: although only thirteen vulnerabilities were reported, it led all mobile operating systems in the amount of malware written for the platform.”

So fruitco has more holes but nobody wants to eat it, while Android has less holes but everyone is trying to get a slice of the green robot......maybe this reflects that crapple is on the wane?
