Intel did not tell the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team, better known as US-CERT, about Meltdown and Spectre until Jan. 3, after reports on them in online technology site The Register had begun to circulate.
US-CERT, which issues warnings about cyber security problems to the public and private sector, did not respond to a request for comment.
