Virtual Box security concerns

[firenice03]

Simulated system works as a regular computer, but a lot of users could take it carelessly enough, failing to pay proper attention in terms of necessary updates and maintenance, perceiving the Virtual Box reality as some kind of toy. Well, it is a toy of a sort, but this toy may actually give you away, if that makes sense.

Why pin to Virtual Box, its a hypervisor like the rest, VMWare has free version just as easily downloaded as are other open sourced... Windows 10 come with Hyper-V..
Its not Virtual Box or VMWare or KVM or XYZ.. It's virtualization; which can be used to test or trial or run an enterprise...  its a tool and tools need to be used properly...

Data Centers and Cloud(s) are full of virtual machines.. A VM is no different than a barebone than a container... PC's are computers, a man in the middle or a honey pot doesn't care about OS...
Sadly I have heard the phrase, "I'll run Windows on MAC and won't need AV software cause its a MAC... "

Phones and tablets are just as powerful "toys" and think of what some folks run on those, right next to their banking app...
