We sought peer review from a security researcher Paul (aka "Mr Bruh") to dig into the topics of ASUS' vulnerabilities and exploits. If you have ASUS software installed you should think about removing it -- and you should minimally update it. Likewise be careful of what data you feed into ASUS' RMA and warranty system."
