MAC OS X Security and Virtualization security tips

[thomjf at gmail.com (TT)]

Hey All,

Newbie here, this is the first topic I think I may be able to jump in  
on without feeling like complete poge. VM fusion is the top pick in my  
opinion. They seem to stay on top of updates and I seem to remember  
that there was quite abit of work done on VM code exploits. (Ed  
Skodis?)This research, I would hope has filtered down to hardening the  
code. Also my template for harding OSX is the NSA website. Just Google  
NSA+ OSX security. Also do not forget to upgrade to the new java  
engine from Sun.
