What Consumers Need to Know About Intel's Chip Flaw
Intel facing scrutiny after two major security flaws were exposed last week in its computer chips. The technology giant is issuing patches in a series of software updates. Washington Post Technology Reporter Brian Fung explains what consumers need to be aware of.
