Mac OS X is controlled only after 30 minutes

According to the "champion" in the race to attack Apple's operating system last month, gaining control of the Mac is just a "little deal" for hackers.

On February 22, a Swedish person set up a Mac Mini as a server and invited hackers to break through the system security layer to manage and delete files, folders or install applications on the device.

Only 6 hours later, the race called "rm-my-mac" ended. The winner, nicknamed Gwerdna, said: " I found a way to control Mac OS X in about 20-30 minutes. Initially, I looked around to look for configuration errors, but then I decided use one of the unpublished vulnerabilities, Mac OS X bugs are flawless ", Gwerdna sarcastically.

Apple OS X has been criticized for several weeks with the emergence of two new viruses and a series of serious vulnerabilities discovered.

In January, Australian researcher Neil Archibald also claimed that some bugs in the operating system could be exploited by bad guys. " Mac OS X is still relatively safe because its market share is too low compared to Microsoft Windows and other popular Unix platforms, " Archibald said.

Apple representatives declined to comment on the issue.
