A computer-implemented method for establishing a secure connection between a lead device and a secondary device, the method comprising: - receiving, by one or more processors of the lead device, a request to establish the secure connection with the secondary device; - determining, by the lead device, whether the secure connection is an initial connection with the secondary device, wherein the initial connection is a first connection between the lead device and the secondary device; - in response to a determination that the secure connection is not an initial connection with the secondary device, authenticating, by the lead device, the secondary device using one or more credentials associated with the secondary device and stored by the lead device; - in response to a determination that the secure connection is the initial connection with the secondary device: - requesting, by the lead device, additional credentials from the secondary device; - receiving, by the lead device, additional credentials comprising the one or more credentials associated with the secondary device from the secondary device; - storing, by the lead device, the one ore more credentials; - authenticating, by the lead device, the secondary device using the additional credentials from the secondary device; and - in response to a successful authentication using the one or more credentials to establish the secure connection with the secondary device, wherein the secondary device includes a sensor and the lead device is a lead camera device. - receiving, by one or more processors of the lead device, a request to establish the secure connection with the secondary device; - determining, by the lead device, whether the secure connection is an initial connection with the secondary device, wherein the initial connection is a first connection between the lead device and the secondary device; - in response to a determination that the secure connection is not an initial connection with the secondary device, authenticating, by the lead device, the secondary device using one or more credentials associated with the secondary device and stored by the lead device; - in response to a determination that the secure connection is the initial connection with the secondary device: - requesting, by the lead device, additional credentials from the secondary device; - receiving, by the lead device, additional credentials comprising the one or more credentials associated with the secondary device from the secondary device; - storing, by the lead device, the one ore more credentials; - authenticating, by the lead device, the secondary device using the additional credentials from the secondary device; and - in response to a successful authentication using the one or more credentials to establish the secure connection with the secondary device, - requesting, by the lead device, additional credentials from the secondary device; - receiving, by the lead device, additional credentials comprising the one or more credentials associated with the secondary device from the secondary device; - storing, by the lead device, the one ore more credentials; - authenticating, by the lead device, the secondary device using the additional credentials from the secondary device; and - in response to a successful authentication using the one or more credentials to establish the secure connection with the secondary device,
