Abstract
A blockchain is used to track chain of custody associated with devices and user entities associated with those devices. In an embodiment, an identity engine traverses a blockchain to determine one or more transactions associated with a device and, in some cases, one or more users of that device. Based at least in part on the content of an authentication or provisioning request and that of the chain of custody, the identity engine provisions the device for a given user.
