  • Production Certificates – How do devices receive their digital identity?

During the manufacturing process, the device generates its own unique key pair and creates a certificate request from it. The request is transferred to MTG IoT PKI and validated there. MTG IoT PKI then issues the initial device certificate, which is installed directly on the device.

This gives each device a unique cryptographic identity before it leaves the factory and enables secure authentication. Alternatively, secure key generation can also be performed using appropriately protected production clients.
