…though not the long-promised deluge.
I won’t be posting about OSX/Revir here for the moment, since I already did at Infosecurity Magazine: Revir’s Ride not a Derby Winner.
I’ve also just followed up on Apple’s inclusion of detection of Revir in its rudimentary XProtect facility in an article that also takes a first look at the malware Intego are calling OSX/Flashback, which masquerades as a Flash Player Installer.
That article’s not up yet, but you might be interested in the following links:
