  • Publication number: 20230370287
    Abstract: A system for securely provisioning a plurality of computerized devices of a tenant, is provided. The system includes a processor, and a computer storage medium including instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to perform operations. The operations include receiving provisioning requests from the plurality of computerized devices needing certificates, each provisioning request indicating a tenant identifier identifying the tenant, and transmitting the provisioning requests to a set of security credential management system backend components based on the tenant identifier. The set of SCMS backend components includes enrollment certificate authorities operable to generate enrollment certificates, each provisioning request being transmitted to one of the one or more enrollment certificate authorities based on the tenant identifier of each provisioning request, and a pseudonym certificate authority operable to generate digital assets in response to receiving a provisioning request.

  • Patent number: 11706207
    Abstract: A system can include a certificate application programming interface (API) device that is operable to receive, via an application programming interface (API), an enrollment request for the at least one computerized device. The certificate API device can also generate, via the API, an enrollment package and an end entity certificate package for the at least one computerized device by obtaining the enrollment package and the end entity certificate package from a certificate management service (CMS). The certificate API device can also transmit, via the API, the enrollment package and the end entity certificate package to the at least one computerized device. The system can also include the CMS that is operable to provide the enrollment package and the end entity certificate package to the certificate API device.

  • Patent number: 11070565
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for securely provisioning a roadside unit (RSU) that includes an application certificate, wherein the RSU is geographically restricted according to the application certificate. An enhanced SCMS system may receive a request for an application certificate for the RSU; determine, in response to the request, an operating geolocation for the RSU; verify that the operating geolocation is within the allowed geo-region for the RSU; generate an application certificate that includes the operating geolocation; and provide the application certificate to the RSU device.

  • Patent number: 10917248
    Abstract: An example system receives certificate requests from clients. Each request can indicate a number of computerized devices needing certificates; a timestamp indicating when the request was transmitted; and a client identifier. The system includes a Quality of Service (QoS) manager that: distributes the requests from the clients across client queues, each of the client queues corresponding to a particular client; and divides requests into smaller subgroups of entries corresponding to a subset of the computerized devices needing certificates. The system can also transmit retrieved entries from the client queues to a certificate management service.
