AMD and ARM have formed a strategic partnership to accelerate the adoption of an open, end-to-end security ecosystem based on ARM TrustZone technology.
An AMD spokesperson told TG Daily the company would develop a platform security processor based on ARM's Cortex-A5 chip which features TrustZone technology.
Essentially, this would align both AMD x86- and ARM-based hardware with an industry standard security platform - spanning multiple processor architectures and helping to spur broader ecosystem support.
Indeed, AMD plans to provide TrustZone-enabled development platforms on select APUs in 2013, and expected to further expand across its product portfolio in 2014.
