... per week comparing to 40 000 attacks for Windows PCs per day (!) (security tracking statistical data) is indeed what you call "getting worse".

""Mac users must remember that less targeted is not the same as invulnerable," said Richard Wang, manager of SophosLabs to eWEEK.

The threat is not as prevalent as PC users, with only "one to two" attacks on Macs each week, compared to the "tens of thousands" per day against Windows PCs, said Wang."
