Currently, users of Linux more secure than Windows users because Windows virus on a lot more than Linux viruses are still very few.

But if we may give some idea about the basic principles of security. Basically, all man-made software that brings the nature of its creator (human) is NOT PERFECT and always have kelmahan, these so-called security holes (vulnerabilities) and vulnerabilities that will be exploited by malicious code to exploit the OS.

To this day no one OS that does not have security holes, and every day new vulnerabilities are always found, so it's actually a more precise statement describing the matter is 'the question is not the safe application of the virus but if the criminals were motivated to exploit the applications'.

1.
