Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for secure authentication of IoT devices are disclosed. The method for secure authentication of IoT devices comprises establishing a network connection with a network operator server via a control channel, establishing identity of the network operator server using a pre-shared server key, establishing identity of the IoT device using a pre-shared client key and cryptographically generating a session key for a network session to allow secure data exchange between the network operator server and the IoT device. The cryptographically generated session key is used for securely authenticating application running on the authenticated IoT device.
