Windows 8 Could W8 be the most secure OS in town ??

[EvanDavis]

After a week of rampant hacking at the Black Hat and DEF CON security conferences in Las Vegas, one operating system escaped unscathed: Microsoft’s upcoming Windows 8.

From the same article.

Curiously, Windows Phone 7 seems to have evaded malware entirely – though whether this is because WP7 is inherently more secure, or simply because virus writers aren’t interested in an OS that only has 27 users, we don’t know.
