Elmedia Player and Folx are safe to use via Setapp
The free version of one of the most popular video players for Mac, Elmedia Player has suffered a security breach today. The download of the player distributed via Eltima Software website has been compromised by hackers and carried malicious software. There is a possibility that other applications on the website, such as Folx, have been affected. We were sorry to hear that our partners were so brutally attacked and we hope the problem will be tackled in the nearest time.
Meanwhile, the important part is: Setapp versions of the applications are completely safe. We have high security standards and our system is thoroughly protected. Your data is still your data, your Mac is safe and sound. Thanks for using Setapp, we’ll keep protecting your privacy against less virtuous people of this world.
