    Abstract: An ecosystem for managing a public key infrastructure (PKI) includes an electronic device having at least one silicon component, an ecosystem manager configured to create at least one PKI keypair, a root certificate, and a bootstrapping certificate, and a device manufacturer configured to integrate into the electronic device the at least one silicon component. The device manufacturer is further configured to integrate into the at least one silicon component a public key of the at least one PKI keypair and the bootstrapping certificate. The ecosystem further includes an ecosystem approved test lab (ATL) configured to test the electronic device having the integrated silicon component, the public key, and the bootstrapping certificate. The ecosystem ATL is further configured to confirm that the bootstrapping certificate complies with predetermined standards of the ecosystem.
