Abstract
System and method for establishing a secure communication between a plurality of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, includes provisioning a first and a second IoT devices by providing a unique identification, a digital identity token and a cryptographic key to each of the first and second IoT devices; authenticating the second IoT device by the first IoT device; inviting the second IoT device by the first IoT device to establish a communication line with the first IoT device; establishing a secure communication line between the first IoT device and the second IoT device by authenticating the communication line between the first IoT device and the second IoT device and issuing a digital certificate to the communication line between the first IoT device and the second IoT device; establishing secure communication lines between the first IoT device, the second IoT device and a plurality of more devices; and grouping the first IoT device, the second IoT device and the plurality of more devices into different groups based on a predetermined criteria.
