Helping Secure the AI Future: AMD Commitment to Hardware and Firmware Transparency

Oct 10, 2025

Abstract background and Data Center

Building Trust in AI Infrastructure

As enterprises accelerate AI adoption, trust must start with transparent, verifiable infrastructure. AMD is pioneering new standards for product security through comprehensive hardware and firmware transparency initiatives across the entire AMD data center portfolio—including CPUs, GPU accelerators, adaptive accelerators, DPU accelerators, and Ethernet adapters. By championing open standards, rigorous third-party auditing, and innovative provenance tracking, AMD is building a trusted infrastructure backbone that tomorrow's AI applications demand.

OCP S.A.F.E. Framework: Comprehensive Security Auditing

AMD products undergo extensive evaluation by independent security experts through the OCP Security Appraisal Framework and Enablement (S.A.F.E.), with public audit results underscoring the AMD commitment to openness. As contributors to the evolving S.A.F.E. specification, AMD has proposed using an Endorsement CoRIM profile for improved standardization and will demonstrate this innovation at the OCP Global Summit.

Device Provenance: Supply Chain Transparency

Complementing our OCP S.A.F.E. initiatives, the AMD Device Provenance initiative builds infrastructure for enhanced supply chain traceability, helping verify the authenticity and integrity of design files throughout the manufacturing process. This comprehensive approach provides unprecedented visibility into silicon provenance, enabling customers to verify the lifecycle of their data center components from design through deployment.

Live Demonstrations at OCP Global Summit

At the 2025 OCP Global Summit, come experience these planned live demonstrations of these security innovations at Booth #B31:

  1. Confidential AI on AMD EPYC™ CPU: SEV-attested verification for AI workloads running in confidential containers.
  2. Silicon Provenance: Transparency into SoC manufacturing and supply chain integrity.
  3. OCP Attestation: Comprehensive platform verification through standardized attestation architecture.
  4. Caliptra-Endorsed Attestation: Silicon Root of Trust endorsement enabling secure, air-gapped AI deployments.
  5. SEV Trusted IO: Next-generation TDISP-compliant endpoint development for secure AI infrastructure.

The Future of Secure AI

These transparency innovations provide the verifiable foundation that modern AI deployments require—enabling automated compliance validation, seamless cloud integration, and the confidence to scale AI initiatives without compromising on security. As AI reshapes industries, the AMD commitment to open, auditable, and transparent platforms across our entire data center ecosystem means that organizations can embrace this transformation while maintaining the high standards of trust and security.
