Throughout two years, Android has thrived in business, However Android has now had an onslaught of malware programs that have been targeting solely Android. Many of them include SMS messages that if responded to, harm your phone. These "Trojan horse's" are the main malware that targets Android, yet others are fake antivirus viruses. Android states that these endless attacks of malware will come to a halt as android creates safety walls and other such protections from malicious software.

Do you think there is a reason that this happens to androids and not mac mobile devices? So I guess what I'm getting at is questioning what is to blame, the device or the malware?
Thanks,
