AMD incorporates ARM‘s TrustZone in their 2013 APUs for mobiles and tablets

It seems like Intel is not the only one eyeing the mobile and tablet space as AMD is silently preparing behind the scenes for an onslaught next year. The CPU and graphics card maker has just entered into a partnership with ARM which states that they will be incorporating ARM’s TrustZone technology in their future APUs that will see the light of day sometime in 2013. These APUs will be specifically targeted towards mobile devices, tablets as well as desktop PCs. The TrustZone technology is a hardware level security feature that currently resides in ARM’s Cortex A5-series CPUs that make for more secure devices. This industry-first collaboration between the two firms will help accelerate broader ecosystem support by aligning x86 hardware with the world’s most broadly-adopted mobile security ecosystem.
