Apple, Linux, not Windows, most vulnerable operating systems in 2014

A whopping average of 19 security vulnerabilities were reported every day in 2014. Mac OS X had 147 vulnerabilities, with 64 being rated as high-severity bugs. Linux kernel had a rough year, with 119 security holes and 24 were rated high severity. Internet Exploder Explorer blew away the “competition” by having nearly twice as many security flaws than the second most vulnerable app, which was Google Chrome. Internet Explorer didn’t even make the top 20 list for vulnerabilities discovered in the first month of 2015.”]
