Vulnerability in Intel® CPUs did not affect LeaderGPU

In early January, a technological defect was found in Intel's chips, which opens the way for attackers to carry out various malicious activities. The defect is associated with the kernel - the core of the operating system, which, at the most basic level, provides the interaction between the OS and the processor. 

The vulnerability is related to the way the Microsoft Windows® kernel interacts with Intel® processors. Theoretically, a hacker can use this interaction to bypass standard security measures. The solution to the problem lies in rethinking the interaction between the core and the processor, but the consequences of this approach may be not so good: experts believe that this will directly affect performance.

Why doesn’t this vulnerability affect LeaderGPU® clients?

The vulnerability found in Intel® processors has significant consequences for companies and ordinary users, but it does not affect LeaderGPU® customers. Why?

  1. We offer bare metal servers, which means the CPU and the physical server are completely isolated from any third-party activity. Only you can use the server. No virtualisation, no shared resources.
  2. We use advanced protection techniques against any third-party impact.

You can be assured of the unprecedented security and reliability of LeaderGPU® servers. We guarantee it!
