Abstract
A computing device is provisioned to be remotely managed by a current owner. The device has an initial cryptographic basis of trust, and an owner identifier that facilitates establishment of communication with the current owner of the device. The ownership may change one or more times while the device may remain inoperative. Later, the device receives a transfer-of-ownership indication, which it verifies against the initial basis of trust to establish a new current owner. The device may then communicate with a device management service of the new current owner based on the transfer-of-ownership indication.
