Yep. Seems to be a sensationalized piece that basically boils down to "Mac market share in enterprise is now more than a rounding error, so hackers might start targeting it"

It may not even be that much of a real increase. The "1000%" increase chart in the article doesn't have any y-axis label, which is suspicious. Plus percent increases from a small absolute starting point are misleading.

Skimming article, it looks like increase is in dark web posts about MacOS zero days and CVEs rather than actual successful attacks.

For Series X sure. Given it performance issues on PS5 getting it to run on the Series S might have been pretty challenging.

That site and testing is run by a Brave employee, right? I'd be very skeptical of Brave's high scores.
