SAN FRANCISCO--Politicians like to joke that Social Security reform is considered the "third rail" of politics. In Apple's world, that rail belongs to security.
It's been a while since we examined the "state of Mac security," and with this week's RSA Conference (

http://cansecwest.com/) conference fresh in everyone's mind, it seemed like a decent time.
The topic is always a heated one, and it tends to bring out the usual Mac vs. PC (
