Apple has long said that Windows computers are more vulnerable to computer attacks that his Mac, and was also a commercial argument. It seems that times are changing. With 384 vulnerabilities discovered in 2015, the OS X operating system is ultimately the winner of the Top 50 of the least secure software
Microsoft can thus avail themselves of offer its users a software less vulnerable to computer attacks as that of its competitor. A total of 151 vulnerabilities were discovered on the Windows 8 system during the year. But this difference is also explained by the fact that the authors of the ranking have chosen to separate the different versions of Windows.

The confrontation between Mac OS X and Windows is therefore biased party. But beware, not all that much: the majority of vulnerabilities discovered in Microsoft’s software involved all versions of the software. It is therefore not adding them.
Android is more secure than iOS, really?
The comparison between the operating systems iOS and Android mobile version is, however, much more telling. The first is in second place of the seamy ranking (with 375 discovered flaws), while the second, which team yet over 70% of mobile devices in France, leading to the twentieth position, with only (!) 130 vulnerabilities discovered in 2015.
The Adobe Flash Player software, which allows you to view the latest generation web sites, completed the podium. In 2015, 314 vulnerabilities have been discovered there. To achieve this ranking, the website details CVE has used the database provided by the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), a US-based IT security. However, it ignores the damage suffered by users.
