[QUOTE="509322, post: 705124"] I haven't been following it. Meltdown and Spectre are vulnerabilities ([URL="https://spectreattack.com/"]Meltdown and Spectre[/URL]). You have to apply mitigation patches as required by the hardware\firmware and\or BIOS. There are also program patches\modifications to be made per the publishers. For example, the Google Chrome browser set flag for strict site isolation. I don't have a complete list of everything that needs to be done. That will get all sorted out over the coming months by Intel, Microsoft, the OEMs and the various publishers. Expect stuff being said now to be revised in the coming months. AppGuard is SRP. AppGuard is not anti-exploit. Even an anti-exploit product is not going to protect an unpatched Meltdown\Spectre system -- something you guys just aren't getting. [/QUOTE]
