There are many occasions in which a company makes certain statements that attract a lot of attention, now the focus is on Intel, who have secured in their latest product security report that are the most reliable brand among the main competitors in the market both of Processors and graphics. In this way the company has launched a series of accusations both AMD as Nvidia accusing them of not knowing how to identify the Vulnerabilities of their products in time, in addition to not trying to correct them properly.
The safety of hardware components is something really important, a firmware failure can create an attack vector so that a cybercrime can take advantage of the resources of a computer to use them on their own, while a physical failure can end with quite problems Serious that often involve having to change the piece or in the worst case, the entire computer. That is why companies should take the vulnerabilities of their products with greater seriousness to protect both privacy and the integrity of their customers’ equipment.
According to Intel, both AMD and Nvidia have more vulnerabilities than them
Technological sector companies usually use various reports to try to earn users’ confidence, this is something they have been doing for a long time and that it does not seem to change in the future. In this case, the last report that comes from Intel is related to the safety of its products, both physically and firmware, and that is that the brand has checked when defining as the only one that has really safe products among the Main brands dedicated to manufacturing processors and graphics cards.
In this way, they have accused so much Nvidia as AMD not being able to discover or solve internally Vulnerabilities They have their productsindicating that they have been able to identify 96% of the threats and to correct 100% of them. For this reason they attack AMD by indicating that the company has only managed to discover 57% of vulnerabilities dropping that the other 43% was discovered by users and also highlighting that they are not able to correct them, since they have 78 vulnerabilities currently cataloged as “without planned solution.”
Although AMD It is not the only company that Intel has set as a goal, since they have also gone for Nvidia ensuring that their products only have extremely serious failures since they count 18 Vulnerabilities of securityall highly qualified, and 13 of them could allow a malicious to execute code in the affected PC. Intel has taken advantage of breastfeeding and indicating that his graphs have only reported 10 problems, of which only one is considered a high or serious threat.
It is clear that the company’s objective is to remove a weight from top highlighting the failures of its main competitors at the security level, since it is true that Intel has enough protection at the firmware level, but they should also look a little how they manufacture their products so that they do not have the hardware problems that gave for example the generations 13 and 14.
