According to cybercrime expect from Australia, Linux or the Apple iPhone was endorsed
as the safe systems to use for Internet Banking.
Detective Inspector Bruce van der Graaf from the NSW Computer Crime Investigation Unit
gave evidence on the security feature provided by Linux at a public hearing in Sydney.
"If you are using the internet for a commercial transaction, use a Linux boot up disk - such as Ubuntu or some of the other flavours. Puppylinux is a nice small distribution that boots up fairly quickly.
"It gives you an operating system which is perfectly clean and operates only in the memory of the computer and is a perfectly safe way of doing internet banking," van der Graaf was quoted as saying.
