Abstract

A processing device authenticates a computing device of a user to a user account. The processing device determines a role associated with the user account, and additionally determines access permissions to one or more resources based on the role. The processing device then grants to the computing device access to the one or more resources to be protected in an internet of things (IoT) solution.
