Story: Linux servers 'attacked more often'
That doesn't mean that Linux servers are bad. The fact is that there are more Unix servers than Windows servers and the information hackers would like to have is on Unix servers not on Windows servers. They tried to attack Linux serves. They didn't even try to attack Windows servers so there could be more attacks on Linux serves. The other thing is how did the company count attacks? How can you count attacks if you even don't know if attack was or was not? If people counted attacks they could make up something unreal. If software counted attacks it could be a bit silly programmed. One of my friends work in one software company and he says they found out that Windows servers are easier to bo sucessfully breaken in. And that Linux servers are harder to break in if it's properties and config files are set correctly. If there are some penniles people who buy Linux servers because of no-fee and they can't configure config files, that's their problem. This data on this site is something bla bla bla... :P
