Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for on-boarding an out of the box (OOB) device so as to secure electronic control of the OOB device. In some embodiments, a method may be performed by a computing device having an electronic processor, and may include automatically electronically receiving, by a processor, an electronic request to on-board from the OOB device, and authenticating, by the processor, a standardized certificate associated with the OOB device. The method may further include obtaining, by the processor, a policy authority to electronically control the OOB device. The method may further include securing electronic control of the OOB device, by the processor, based at least in part on the obtained approval.
