This Recommendation specifies a converged service for identification and authentication for IoT devices in decentralized environment (CSIADE). It provides common characteristics and general requirements, functional architecture, main capabilities and procedures of CSIADE. The scope of this Recommendation includes:

– the concept, common characteristics and general requirements of CSIADE,

– the functional architecture, main capabilities and procedures of CSIADE.

NOTE – Use of conventional centralized IoT identification and authentication management systems are out of the scope of this Recommendation and this Recommendation does not contradict existing centralized IoT identification and authentication systems.
