Abstract
A certificate management service (CMS) may securely provision and rotate certificates for edge devices. The CMS may pre-register a unique device ID of an edge device (e.g., provided by the device manufacturer). When the edge device is installed at the client's remote network, it is provisioned with a common bootstrap certificate that allows the edge device to initially establish a secure to connection to a local hub device and to request a client certificate. The CMS receives the request for the client certificate, which includes the unique device ID. Since the unique device ID was pre-registered at the CMS, the CMS authenticates the request for the client certificate. The CMS causes a signed client certificate to be delivered back to the edge device, which may be used by the edge device to establish subsequent secure connections.
