Hackers to taget Adobe in 2010

The latest report by McAfee has pointed out that in 2010, Adobe Flash and Adobe Reader will be primary target for hackers. The "2010 Threat Predictions" report says that hackers are shifting their attention from Microsoft Office application to Adobe products as they become more popular, according to PC World.

"Cybercriminals have long picked on Microsoft products due to their popularity. In 2010, we anticipate Adobe software, especially Acrobat Reader and Flash, will take the top spot," reports McAfee. For a long Microsoft was the primary target of hackers but the software giant has tightened security in its recent OS releases, leading hackers to look for additional targets
