When it comes to the AMD EPYC 7002 "Rome" processors we have looked at the various higher-end SKUs since their launch last August up to and including the EPYC 7742 with its 64 cores / 128 threads per socket.

[2 minuty čtení] Další z nekonečné řady útoků na routery využívá nejen bezpečnostní slabiny modelů od Linksys a D-Link, ale také aktuálních obav z COVID-19. Uživatele se snaží připravit o citlivá data či kryptoměny.
