Researcher skepticism grows over badBIOS malware claims

Five days after Ars chronicled a security researcher’s three-year odyssey investigating a mysterious piece of malware he dubbed badBIOS, some of his peers say they are still unable to reproduce his findings.

“I am getting increasingly skeptical due to the lack of evidence,” fellow researcher Arrigo Triulzi told Ars after examining forensic data that Ruiu has turned over. “So either I am not as good as people say or there is really nothing.”
