Abstract

Various systems and methods for establishing security profiles for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and trusted platforms, including in OCF specification device deployments, are discussed herein. In an example, a technique for onboarding a subject device for use with a security profile, includes: receiving a request to perform an owner transfer method of a device associated with a device platform; verifying attestation evidence associated with the subject device, the attestation evidence being signed by a certificate produced using a manufacturer-embedded key, with the key provided from a trusted hardware component of the device platform; and performing device provisioning of the subject device, based on the attestation evidence, as the device provisioning causes the subject device to use a security profile tied to manufacturer-embedded keys.
