In that case, the perception that current hardware security is good enough needs to change.
Or the cloud vendors could start offering compute running on new, more secure hardware - e.g. special VM types marketed accordingly.
- gmueckl 8y agoI think that this is wishful thinking on your part unless the drastic performance per power drops are negated. I personally think that these performance drops leads to a horrific environmental impact because every performance drop means that more hardware needs to be provisioned and powered to counter it. So this directly results in more toxic waste from these elecronics and a higher carbon dioxide output into the atmosphere (cloud data centers are a major consumer of electricity). Compared to the long term impact of that, a extra few security breaches sound like the lesser evil to me personally.
