Intel continues to pick up the pieces after announcing last week its flagship processing chip has a couple big security flaws. Archie Agarwal, CEO of ThreatModeler, joins Cheddar to discuss how the security patch may work and if Intel can turn this debacle around.

It's also got to deal with the many class action lawsuits that have been filed against the chip company.
