The types of workloads that will see the largest performance impacts from Meltdown, tools to test yourself & the outlook for 2018. Plus a concise breakdown of Meltdown, Spectre & side-channel attacks like only TechSNAP can. Then we run through the timeline of events & the scuttlebutt of so called coordinated disclosure. We also discuss yet another security issue in macOS High Sierra, a backdoor in popular storage appliances.
