Intel’s Support for FIDO Device Onboarding – Eigenmagic
How do you get a brand new device out of its box and securely configured on your network without having to do more than plug it in and turn it on? Now how do you do this for thousands or millions of IoT devices? Intel reckons the solution, or at least part of it, is something called FIDO Device Onboard, and Justin Warren, a Field Day delegate, is inclined to agree with them. Check out Justin’s thoughts on Intel’s presentation at this past Security Field Day!
