REGISTRATION OPEN | Trusted IoT Onboarding Open House

Event Date/Time: April 17, 2025 | 8:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Location: NCCoE at 9700 Great Seneca Highway, Rockville, MD 20850
The NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) invites you to join us for our in-person Open House Event to discuss trusted IoT Onboarding!
Untrusted provisioning of IoT device credentials to networks can expose organizations to significant cybersecurity risks. To mitigate these risks, implementing trusted, scalable, and automated mechanisms—starting with secure IoT device network-layer onboarding—is critical for properly safeguarding the IoT ecosystem.
The NIST NCCoE, in collaboration with 11 industry collaborators, has developed several technical build implementations using commercially available technologies such as Wi-Fi Easy Connect, Bootstrap Router Key Infrastructure (BRSKI), and Thread. These technologies accelerate the adoption of trusted network-layer onboarding and relevant best practices. This work is documented in NIST Special Publication (SP) 1800-36, which offers organizations guidance for step-by-step implementation.
During this event, join the NCCoE team and project collaborators to explore the technical implementation solutions outlined in SP 1800-36 and connect with leading experts in the field. This is a valuable opportunity for those interested in advancing IoT security, and our team looks forward to your participation and insights.
The deadline to register is April 10, 2025. Registration is for in-person attendance only. There is no cost to attend.
