Analyst Argues Against Google?s Chrome OS Security Promises

Google made a couple bold statements about its upcoming Chromebook tablet, many of which have certainly excited consumers, particularly the promise of an end to security hassles. In the Chromebook launch announcement, Google claimed that ?Chromebooks have many layers of security built in so there is no anti-virus software to buy and maintain. Even more importantly, you won?t spend hours fighting your computer to set it up and keep it up to date.? Sounds nice, right? Well, Trend Micro?s security consultant Rik Ferguson vigorously disagrees, claiming that the search giant risks repeating the same security mistakes Apple made.
