Please someone correct me if i have understood something completely wrong.
I am talking from a managerial point of view. From an OS point of view, Android and iOS are more controlled on their apps, sure - but that isn't to say malicious apps still can't be developed for them and distributed.

I am not arguing our OS is or isn't more open than the competition, but from a company perspective on QA and management I don't think there should be much of a difference.
