RE:         Spectre and Meltdown

In January, reports were published regarding two security flaws known as "Spectre" and "Meltdown." These vulnerabilities can potentially affect modern processors that are embedded in any type of computing device.

Bio-Rad’s internal IT team is analyzing the possible impact of these vulnerabilities on Bio-Rad products as well as any recommended patches that are released by vendors of affected processors, operating systems, and other software, including browsers, which help mitigate the impact of these security flaws. If Bio-Rad products are found to be impacted or a patch is recommended for any of our products, additional product-specific information will be announced appropriately.

Bio-Rad is fully committed to monitoring the performance of our products and improving the quality of our services. It is our highest priority to maintain customer satisfaction. Should you have any question or concerns, please contact your local Bio-Rad Technical Support representative.

Thank you,
Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc.
