Starting in early 2013, a new threat began to emerge on the Mac: adware. Often, discussions of malware were fairly academic, though, since most Mac users never actually saw any. I wrote frequently about malware and other security issues, and published longer guides on a few specific subjects. I began The Safe Mac as a resource to help educate Mac users about security issues. Thus began my interest in Mac security, and my devotion to protecting the average Mac user. When I began using Mac OS X, I believed that there was no Mac OS X malware, but then almost 10 years ago, those illusions were shattered. I got my start in the Mac world early, in 1984, on the first Mac. My name is Thomas Reed, and I’m the former owner of The Safe Mac and creator of the anti-adware program AdwareMedic.
