Mac OS X 10.6.4 Update Addresses Security Issues

 When it comes to data security, there is no "I'm a Mac" and "I'm a PC." Hackers, malware and computer vulnerabilities are platform-agnostic, and small business owners need to be vigilant about keeping their computers safe.

This week, Apple has released an update to Mac OS -- this one is called 10.6.4 -- that addresses a large number of security vulnerabilities. ESecurityPlanet has the full report.

Apple's Mac OS X is getting an update this week to version 10.6.4, providing users with a long list of security fixes, as well.

From a security perspective, the 10.6.4 release tackles a number of high-priority vulnerabilities including an updated Adobe Flash Player plug-in. Earlier this month, a zero-day security vulnerability had been found in Flash Player.
