The World's safest Operating System
London, UK - 19 February 2004, 17:30 GMT - A study by the mi2g

Operating System (OS) is proving to be the Open Source family of BSD (Berkley
Software Distribution) and the Mac OS X based on Darwin. The study also reveals
that Linux has become the most breached online server OS in the government
and non-government spheres for the first time, while the number of successful
hacker attacks against Microsoft Windows based servers have fallen consistently
for the last ten months.
