AMD will reinstate memory encryption on Ryzen 9000 CPUs through a BIOS update in July — TSME is coming back after 'valuable community feedback'

AMD says it will reinstate firmware memory encryption (TSME) on non-PRO Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs through a BIOS update in July, following the feature's removal through an earlier firmware update.
AMD is responding to community feedback regarding a previously removed security feature, indicating a re-prioritization of platform security on its consumer CPUs.
This move highlights the ongoing importance of hardware-level security features even in consumer-grade components and AMD's responsiveness to user demands.
Non-PRO Ryzen 9000 desktop CPUs will regain a memory encryption feature through a firmware update, enhancing data security for end-users.
