London, UK - 31 October 2002, 16:00 GMT - Based on the number of vulnerabilities
announced in 2002 that affect operating systems, the SCO Unix, Apple Macintosh
and Compaq Tru64 Operating Systems appear to be the least prone to hacker
attack and damage from viruses and worms. This is one of the startling conclusions
of the end-of-October 2002 analysis of digital attacks to be released on 1st
November.
