There has been a continuous stream of OS patches (the latest known for the kernel is June 2019) since Spectre and Meltdown were announced.
-
What assurances can DigitalOcean offer that these attacks have now been mitigated?
-
Since the source of these attacks is really a hardware design issue, what is the current state of DigitalOcean hardware?
-
What can I say to my customers when they ask if my (DigitalOcean) systems are secure in the context of these Intel based security problems?
Thanks
Mike
