« Press coverage for new Mac Malware variant
Malicious PDFs are rampant »

Mac users from Germany

June 16th, 2009

The Jahlav-C Mac Trojan has generated a lot of buzz in the Mac community.

Normally, this blog does not get a single visit from Mac users. After all, most things I talk about  here are related to PC security.

After I discovered this new Trojan and blogged about it, we saw a spike in traffic coming from Mac users:

Mac users, daily visits prior and after the blog post.

Other thing that I noticed, most Mac users seem to come from Germany:

In fact, Germany is the second country, after the USA that accounts for the most visits to MalwareDiaries.

This reminds me that this blog should be about security in general, not just Windows security.
