Explanation of Hard Drive Storage for 2020: HDD, Hybrid, SSD, M.2 NVMe
In this article I will explain the main differences between four storage types you can find in modern Windows-based desktops and laptops – hard disk drives (HDD), hybrids (HHDD / SSHD), solid state drives (SSD) and M.2 NVMe storage.

Hard disk drives or HDDs are the traditional storage devices for personal computers. You can find them in the majority of notebooks, especially inexpensive ones. These are hard drives are based on rotating magnetic platters and reading heads. HDDs are the slowest kind of storage in modern PCs.

Microsoft Update Broke Windows Defender
All your Windows Defender is broken thanks to a recent Microsoft Windows Update. The signature update was to fix a file causing system file checks to fail but the patch caused an even bigger issue, making Defender antivirus scans to fail altogether.
The issue was in place for about a day before Microsoft re-patched the antivirus endpoint protection software but not before a ton of press reports and user complaints have gone to the masses.
The fix for that bug was issued on Tuesday in a silent update – but that update ended up causing manual or scheduled Defender malware scans to fail if the “Quick” or “Full” scan options were selected – causing users to take to online forums to report the bug. Real-time scanning was still enabled; and the “Custom” scan option, where users can choose the folders they want to be checked, was also still working, … Read the rest
Xeon and Other Intel CPUs Hit by NetCAT Security Vulnerability
Intel’s server-grade processors are suffering from a vulnerability, which they dubbed NetCAT. The researchers at Vrije University in Amsterdam revealed on Wednesday The vulnerability enables a side-channel attack that can infer what a CPU is working on and is said to rely on issues with two Intel technologies found primarily in the Xeon CPU line: Data-Direct I/O Technology (DDIO) and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA). According to the researchers,
“While NetCAT is powerful even with only minimal assumptions, we believe that we have merely scratched the surface of possibilities for network-based cache attacks, and we expect similar attacks based on NetCAT in the future,” the researchers, from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and ETH Zurich, wrote in a paper published on Tuesday. “We hope that our efforts caution processor vendors against exposing microarchitectural elements to peripherals without a thorough security design to prevent abuse.”
NetCAT is a complex attack and … Read the rest
