Threat detection enhancement algorithms

"The second silicon-level security mitigation is Intel Advanced Platform Telemetry, a way to make hardware diagnostic data available"

Does this work like the Intel Management Engine (ME), as well as uploading your data to someone else's server farm except it can't be disabled by the end user.

"Malware is one of the fastest evolving workloads we're dealing with .. It's evolving to evade threat detection"

Only until they design a computer that can tell the difference between data and executable code and don't execute code downloaded through a browsing session. Maybe we should go back to the Harvard architecture.
