QuoteThe ME implements something called Intel Active Management Technology (AMT) that is capable of accessing any memory address unbeknownst to the main CPU

Das soll ein deutsch-englisches Syndrom sein, oder?

Or maybe not! Just found that unbeknownst is a legit word. My bad due to be an ESL speaker.

Mistake in article:

The Intel ME firmware is not encrypted with RSA 2048, rather, it is signed with RSA 2048. There's a significant difference.
