Former director of security architecture at One Laptop per Child (OLPC) 
Ivan Krstic has joined Apple to help thwart hacker attacks against the 
Mac operating system.

Krstic, a well-respected innovator who designed the Bitfrost security 
specification for the OLPC initiative, joined Cupertino this week and 
will work on core OS security.  His hiring comes at a crucial time for a 
company that ties security to its marketing campaigns despite public 
knowledge that it=E2=80=99s rather trivial to launch exploits against the Mac.

Krstic sees the OLPC=E2=80=99s Bitfrost system as a foolproof way to defeat 
malware attacks so it=E2=80=99s a safe bet he=E2=80=99ll be working with Apple engineers 
on some form of sand-boxing of applications:

on some form of sand-boxing of applications:

Instead of blocking specific viruses, the system (Bitfrost) sequesters 
every program on the computer in a separate virtual operating system, 
preventing any program from damaging the computer, stealing files, or 
spying on the user. Viruses are left isolated and impotent, unable to 
execute their code. =E2=80=9CThis defeats the entire purpose of writing a 
virus,=E2=80=9D says Krstic.
