A method of bootstrapping between endpoint client and server in a low power wireless network, the method comprising: initiating a bootstrap request from an endpoint client to the server with the bootstrap request including an endpoint client name in an identifier; determining a registry apparatus to be assigned to the endpoint client; accepting the bootstrap request at the server and in response to the bootstrap request providing a security object and an identifier to the endpoint client to identify the assigned registry apparatus.

Bootstrap mechanism for endpoint devices

A method of assigning tenancy to a device during bootstrapping between a device and a server in a network includes transmitting a device identifier to a bootstrap server. The method further includes receiving, at the device, a device server address to enable the device to register with the device server. The tenancy is assigned to the device with the device server address.

Assignment of tenancy to devices

A method for verifying trusted communication between an agent device and an application providing apparatus using a registry apparatus. The registry apparatus maintains a device registry comprising authentication information for uniquely authenticating at least one agent device. The method includes the steps of obtaining from the device registry the authentication information for the agent device identified by a device identifier specified in an the authentication request from the agent device, performing verification of the agent device using the authentication information obtained from the device registry, and if the verification is not successful, transmitting to at least one of the agent device and the application providing apparatus revocation information for denying the trusted communication between the agent device and the application providing apparatus.

Registry apparatus, agent device, application providing apparatus and corresponding methods

A machine implemented method of communication between server and remote device, the method comprising: determining an availability and address of the remote device on a network for communication with the server; obtaining a public key attributed to the remote device; signing the public key attributed to the remote device with a private key of the server and so generating a digitally signed certificate to verify the ownership of the public key as the remote device; and transmitting the digitally signed certificate to the remote device.

Bootstrapping without transferring private key

A method of bootstrapping between endpoint client and server in a low power wireless network. The method includes the steps of initiating a bootstrap request from an endpoint client to the server with the bootstrap request including an endpoint client name in an identifier, determining a registry apparatus to be assigned to the endpoint client, accepting the bootstrap request at the server and in response to the bootstrap request providing a security object and an identifier to the endpoint client to identify the assigned registry apparatus.
