Abstract:
Described herein are methods, apparatuses, and systems for secure provisioning of devices for manufacturing and maintenance. A method includes provisioning a sensor device by storing identification data for the sensor device and information used to authenticate the identification data in the sensor device. A method includes storing subassembly data for the sensor device and information used to authenticate the subassembly data in the sensor device in response to the sensor device being received and installed in a subassembly unit. The sensor device is installed in response to validating authenticity of the identification data. A method includes connecting the sensor device to a wireless sensor network in response to validating authenticity of one or more of the identification data and the subassembly data. The sensor device is integrated into a larger unit comprising the wireless sensor network.

Claim (Index 44):
A system, comprising:\n a plurality of sensor devices produced by one or more first entities; a provisioning module configured to associate identification data and authentication data with the sensor devices; a validation module configured to identify and authenticate the sensor devices by verifying a digital signature of the one or more first entities; a plurality of subassembly units produced by one or more second entities and configured to be integrated into a larger assembly unit, the plurality of sensor devices being integrated into the subassembly units in response to the validation module verifying the identity of the sensor devices, the provisioning module authenticating and associating subassembly data with the one or more sensor devices; a larger assembly unit comprising the plurality of subassembly units, wherein the plurality of sensor devices are connected to a secure wireless sensor network in response to the validation module verifying an identity and authenticity of the sensor devices by verifying a digital signature of at least one of the one or more first entities and the one or more second entities; and a repair module configured to reconstruct a chain of trust between the sensor devices and one or more other devices of the secure wireless sensor network in response to a device of the secure wireless sensor network being replaced.
