AMD Pro Technologies White Paper

A look at AMD PRO security and the AMD framework for secure, manageable, and reliable business PCs

Features to Help Defend Your Data

Empower your business with a multi-layered security infrastructure, providing 24/7 protection against modern cyber threats.

AMD Secure Processor¹

This dedicated security processor validates code before it is executed to improve data and application integrity. It helps protect your system from unauthorized software and the AMD Ryzen processor “Zen 4” architecture2 prioritizes security features to help reduce exposure to today’s sophisticated attacks.

AMD Shadow Stack

Shadow Stack helps protect against control-flow attacks by checking the normal program stack against a hardware-stored copy. Microsoft Hardware Enforced Stack Protection in Windows 11® is enabled as one component of a comprehensive set of AMD security features.

AMD Platform Secure Boot³

Platform secure boot is designed to provide protection in response to growing firmware-level remote attacks being seen across the industry. AMD Secure Boot helps continue the chain of trust from the system BIOS to the OS Bootloader.

Cloud-Based Remote Manageability*

Enables IT teams to access and assist a remote device inside or outside an organization's network in real time.

  • Modernizes client management in a protected environment
  • Enables endpoint management real-time
  • Avoids the need for on-site IT to access endpoint devices
  • Saves IT time, lowers cost and reduces downtime for employees

Remote actions IT can take with the new cloud manageability solution include accessing systems either on or off the corporate network, applying scheduled patches and updates, and changing BIOS settings. IT staff may also view a user's screen remotely and apply device repairs at scale.

*Available on PCs powered by Ryzen™ PRO 7040 processors.

Footnotes
  1. GD-72: The AMD Secure Processor is a dedicated on-chip security processor integrated within each system-on-a-chip (SoC) and ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) designed by AMD. It enables secure boot with root of trust anchored in hardware, initializes the SoC through a secure boot flow, and establishes an isolated Trusted Execution Environment.
  2. The information contained herein is for informational purposes only and is subject to change without notice. “Zen,” “Zen 2,” and “Zen 3”isare a code names for AMD architecture and areis not a product names. GD-122.
  3. An OEM who has enabled the AMD Secure Boot feature grants permission for their cryptographically signed BIOS code to run only on their platforms using an AMD secure boot enabled motherboard. One-time-programmable fuses in the processor bind the processor to the OEM’s firmware code signing key. From that point on, that processor can only be used with motherboards that use the same code signing key. GD-211.

Microsoft Pluton security processor requires OEM enablement. Check with the OEM before purchase. AMD has not verified the third-party claim.
  5. GD-206: Full system memory encryption with AMD Memory Guard is included in AMD Ryzen™ PRO, AMD Ryzen™ Threadripper PRO, and AMD Athlon™ PRO processors. PP-3. Full system memory encryption with AMD Memory Guard is included in AMD Ryzen PRO, AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO, and AMD Athlon PRO processors. Requires OEM enablement. Check with the system manufacturer prior to purchase.
  6. Compared to Intel vPro, AMD PRO Manageability implements more profiles of the DASH Management Initiative to support multi-vendor management for desktop and mobile systems. KRKP-7
  7. Statement compares Intel vPro and AMD PRO Manageability software suites as of February 2025, and is based on the AMD Pro Manageability software suite providing: (a) standard support for wireless and KVM manageability in every configuration; (b) a range of supported solutions for IT flexibility (including DASH CLI command line, lightweight UI AMC, Microsoft Configuration Manager Plugin AMPS, and the web browser-based ADMP) as opposed to one (1); and (c) a consistent user experience that adhere to well-known design principles. KRKP-19
  8. As of February 2025, AMD PRO Manageability is supported on a wide range of networking hardware from 3rd parties consisting of wireless devices from MediaTek, Qualcomm and Realtek as well as wired devices from Broadcom, Marvell and Realtek, unlike Intel vPro which only supports their own network components.
