Recently, Apple was attacked by hackers who infected the Macs of some employees, the company has told “Reuters” (http://tinyurl.com/a5cqv34).

Unknown hackers infected the computers of some Apple workers when they visited a website for software developers that had been infected with malicious software. The malware had been designed to attack Mac computers, the company said in a statement provided to “Reuters.” The malware was also employed in attacks against Macs used by “other companies,” Apple said.

The attacks mark the highest-profile cyber attacks to date on businesses running Macs. Apple told “Reuters” it plans to release a piece of software on Tuesday, which it said customers can use to identify and repair Macs infected with the malware used in the attacks.
