RE:Security Risk on Qualcomm Chips identifiedThere isn't an internet connected device you can buy that is invulnerable to all attacks. It says right in the article that Qualcomm has already fixed this issue. Security firms such as checkpoint, zecops, blackberry, and others; will often discover vulnerabilities in a device and then report on it so that both the company and the consumer can take necessary action. Usually, as in this case, the company quickly solves the reported problem.
