Abstract
A network end-point communicates, to a controller, a unique hardware identifier that is associated with a first end-point. The network end-point receives from the controller a first encryption key that is uniquely matched to a decryption key privately held by a second end-point. The network end-point then receives device data from a first device in direct communication with the first end-point. The network end-point communicates the device data to the second end-point, wherein the device data is encrypted using the first encryption key.
