  • Publication number: 20240129291
    Abstract: The invention discloses a method to set up a cross-domain DDS-secure network and then use it to transmit various kinds of data. To set up the cross-domain DDS-secure network, we first register IoT and monitor devices on the administration website. Second, we group devices based on our needs and then ask the website to generate configurations and certificates for each device. Finally, we download those files and deploy them to each device. In an extremely case, we can accomplish all operations only through a mobile device. During the system operating, all devices establish the DDS-secure connections to each other, and data will transmit on the network securely.
