We're revisiting the Meltdown & Spectre exploits a month later, explaining oversights, misconceptions, myths, and more. We interviewed some of the discoverers of these exploits, including Anders Fogh at G Data, Werner Haas & Thomas Prescher at Cyberus, and Michael Schwarz at Graz University.

Our discussion piece on Meltdown & Spectre exploits looks back over the past month, and leverages input from experts in the space -- including some who discovered the exploits -- to better understand the current status of the attacks vectors. We define "speculative execution," side-channels and side-channel attacks, preemptive compute, and more in this piece. Separately, we also discuss the impact on both Intel and AMD CPUs by Meltdown and Spectre, alongside the usual ARM.
