Fecha de publicación: 29/12/2020 Fuente: Wipo "IOT" Techniques are described for a centralized, neutral system for Internet of Things (IoT) device activation and automatic onboarding on an end-to-end basis, and for establishing secure communication between IoT devices and the IoT platforms. For example, a method includes receiving an activation request message from an IoT device to activate the IoT device on an IoT core network of a plurality of IoT core networks, wherein the plurality of IoT core networks and a plurality of IoT edge devices are co-located within the co-location facilities, and wherein the plurality of IoT edge devices are connected to one or more IoT platforms; authenticating the IoT device for connection to the IoT core network; and in response to authenticating the IoT device, provisioning a connection between the IoT core network and the plurality of IoT edge devices to provide the IoT device access to the one or more IoT platforms.
