Reading Time: 7 minutesDopo poche settimane dalla scoperta di una possibile falla di sicurezza nei processori Intel, tra l’altro non ancora completamente risolta visto che impatta anche i nuovi processori Skylake, ci sono delle nuove minacce a livello hardware. Meltdown e Spectre sono delle vulnerabilità alquanto serie che affliggono la maggior parte dei processori esistenti sul mercato, rendendo quindi potenzialmente attaccabili sistemi come personal computer, server, dispositivi mobile, ma anche molti servizi di tipo cloud.
