Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for implementing a mutable device ownership transfer (DOT) of a device. An example system receives a request from a first customer to record a mutable DOT of a device using a First Customer Authentication Key (FCAK); receives the FCAK from the first customer in response to receiving the request; determines whether the device is capable of recording the mutable DOT; and installs, using a DOT circuitry, the FCAK in a non-volatile memory of a Root of Trust (RoT) associated with the device in an instance in which the device is capable of recording the mutable DOT. Installing the FCAK in the non-volatile memory of the Root of Trust (RoT) results in no permanent modification to the device.
