Cyber-security and computer experts from the government and law
enforcement are increasingly concerned with malicious code that runs
on Linux and Apple Computer Inc.'s Mac OS X operating systems and
threats posed by devices such as iPods and Xboxes.

Intensive courses on the Mac OS X and Linux operating systems, as well
as iPods, were just a few of the offerings at a recent cyber-security
conference sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense. Network
administrators and cyber-investigators say they are increasingly being
called on to investigate compromises of non-Windows operating systems
and to analyze portable devices such as iPods, according to interviews
with attendees by eWEEK.

The annual Cyber Crime Conference draws top cyber-security talent from
the U.S. military, federal agencies, and federal, state and local law
enforcement to hone their skills and learn about emerging
cyber-security threats.
