Chrome OS: Hacker Target Predictions and Security Risks

Google's Chrome OS will be "poked" by hackers in 2010, in large part because it will be the "new kid on the block," a security researcher predicted Wednesday. Google's (GOOG) Chrome OS will be "poked" by hackers in 2010, in large part because it will be the "new kid on the block," a security researcher predicted today.. Chrome OS will be targeted by attackers, probably even before it's officially released, said Sam Masiello, the director of threat management at antivirus vendor McAfee. "It'll be the new kid on the block, that's one of the primary drivers why we think cybercriminals will target Chrome OS," said Masiello. "The same thing happened to Windows Vista and Windows 7 , even before they were finished. Since Chrome OS is new, it's going to be of interest to security researchers, and it's going to be poked by cybercriminals as well." Google 's operating system was announced in July and released as open-source in November, but is not slated to be available on netbooks until late in 2010. The link for this article located at CIO Magazine is no longer available. . The debut of Chrome OS is likely to draw in cybercriminals, with security analysts underscoring the potential dangers..
