Lenovo has issued a public apology, admitting it “messed up badly” by selling laptops with a controversial tracking software called Superfish pre-installed, reports Yahoo. (Note that ESET anti-malware products will detect Superfish.)
Superfish is software that can monitor online activity in order to suggest advertisements. The software can break the encryption between web browsers and seemingly secure websites, potentially exposing sensitive data, passwords and financial details.
