There is a serious security flaw in billions of Intel CPUs that can let attackers steal confidential data like passwords and encryption keys. Firmware updates can fix it, but at a potential significant performance loss.

    Also someone could intercept and save data that has been encrypted with our standard method now and wait for quantum computing to crack it
