Nothing is perfect including Steam security! #Steam #malware

It's very common and people managed to sneak viruses into both Google Play and Apple Store, but don't think that Steam is safe.

The complexity and closed nature of many PC games gives the Valve security team a very limited overview of what games are capable of. They run testing for days and you can simply make a timer that will only release malware in a month.

Someone managed to release a malware containing game on Steam. It took Valve 2 days to find it out, take down the game, and announce the issue to anyone who played it.

This already happened before, but keep in mind that even Apple Store checkup can be passed by blatant malware these days.
