This is great news from Intel, I will tell you why

A report that Intel Corp. chips are vulnerable to hackers raised concerns about the company’s main products and brand. 

On Tuesday, the technology website The Register said a bug lets some software gain access to parts of a computer’s memory that are set aside to protect things like passwords. All computers with Intel chips from the past 10 years appear to be affected, the report said, and patches to Microsoft Corp.’s Windows and Apple Inc.’s OS X operating systems will be required. The security updates may slow down older machinery by as much as 30 percent, according to The Register.

This was not a bug until they begin checking the SGX security chain.  

SGX is new, it is great, it is the reason Intel will boom.  The fact that Intel is checking the security down to the core means the rest of us can be confident that Intel is taking sandbox and SGX  very seriously. The hole discovered likely came from their work with the hardware wallet and ATM chip card vendors, which again is great news, they are covering the whole sandbox boundary..

Security is mostly about Hawkin's Law,  bots can own assets for a fixed count and a fixed timeout.  Autonomous trading is the essential component of congestion control, Hawkin's Law a theoretical necessity. Ity is implied because of design, humans at the closure of protocols.

Great news for us and great news for Intel, this is a successful operation by the counterfeit cops.  The sandbox system is up and running, clicking on all cylinders. Thank you Intel, your processors go up in value every time you close a hole. Send me my check.
