  • System and method for establishing secure communication channels with internet of things (IoT) devices
    Patent number: 10419930
    Abstract: A system and method are described for establishing secure communication channels. For example, one embodiment of a system includes an IoT device comprising secret/counter processing logic/circuitry to generate a master secret, the master secret to be transmitted to an IoT service. The system may include one or more IoT hubs to receive the master secret from the IoT service over a first secure communication channel. At least one of the IoT hubs can use the master secret to establish a second secure communication channel with the IoT device.
