Abstract
A device is provisioned to communicate with a cloud service provider when the device is unable to establish a secure connection due to an invalid root certificate authority (CA) certificate installed at the device. The cloud service provider establishes a temporary non-secure connection between a device recovery service and the device. The device recovery service sends a signed updated root CA certificate to the device. Based on the signed updated root CA certificate, a secure connection is established between the device and operational functions at the cloud service provider.
