Less than a year and a half ago, Intel
spun-out its Security division into a new independent company. Now the chip giant reports it will be creating a new internal cybersecurity group to bolster its security. The move is a result of the dangerous Meltdown and Spectre CPU vulnerabilities that were disclosed last week.
The new group would be run by Intel human resources chief Leslie Culberstone who has worked in the chipmaker since 1979 and would be called, "Intel Product Assurance and Security," according to the report.
“It is critical that we continue to work with the industry, to excel at customer satisfaction, to act with uncompromising integrity, and to achieve the highest standards of excellences,” the Oregonian quoted Intel Chief Executive Brian Krzanich as saying in the memo.
