A newly disclosed security issue known as "ReVault" could leave millions of Dell laptops vulnerable to persistent attacks, with severe implications for both individual and organizational security. Security researchers have discovered that over 100 models of Dell Latitude and Precision laptops, widely used by businesses and government agencies, are affected due to vulnerabilities in the Broadcom BCM5820X series chips—specifically, within Dell’s ControlVault3 secure enclave.

Dell Technologies confirmed a cyberattack against its Customer Solution Centers platform, orchestrated by the “World Leaks” extortion group. While the incident attracted significant attention within the security industry, Dell’s design choices and rapid response effectively minimized both customer impact and the incident footprint.
