Post #3490278

In what appears to be a deliberate, covert move, chipmaker & federal contractor #AMD stripped memory #encryption from its consumer CPUs “AMD has yet to say why TSME [Transparent Secure Memory Encryption] worked on these CPUs, or even to confirm the change. AMD declined to answer questions sent by email other than to say TSME “is a security feature only applied to PRO CPUs as part of AMD PRO Technologies.” The statement is the first known time the chipmaker has explicitly made this restriction public.” #privacy #datasec #infosec #4A #personalSecurity #massSurveillance https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/06/users-cry-foul-after-amd-stripped-memory-crypto-from-its-consumer-cpus
