    摘要: A thermostat of an HVAC system receives active event parameters from a utility provider. The active event parameters include a start time, a stop time, and a predefined temperature setpoint for the active event, which is associated with a requirement to decrease energy consumption between the start time and the stop time. Following the start time, the thermostat adjusts a setpoint temperature of the HVAC system to the predefined setpoint temperature. After adjusting the setpoint temperature to the predefined setpoint temperature, a new user setting for operation of the HVAC system is received. The thermostat determines that energy consumed during operation of the HVAC system according to the new user setting is less than or equal to energy consumed during operation of the HVAC system according to the predefined setpoint temperature. Following this determination, the thermostat causes the HVAC system to operate according to the new user settings.

    摘要: A system for authenticating components using software security tokens receives, from a remote server, a security token that is a software security artifact that is used to uniquely identify a component. The system programs the security token into the component, where programming the security token into the component comprises encoding the component with the security token such that the security token in retrievable upon request for authenticating the component. The system generates a report file comprising the programmed security token. The programmed security token is used to authenticate the component. The system transmits the report file to the remote server.

    摘要: A component authentication and validation system requests a token server to provide tokens for a product line. The system receives, from the token server, the requested tokens. The system associates each token with a unique identifier that uniquely identifies the token. The system receives, from a production line server, a request to transmit a particular number of tokens to program the components associated with the product line. The system receives, from the production line server, a report file comprising a programmed token that is programmed into a component associated with the product line. The programmed token is used to authenticate the component. The system registers the token with the token server, such that inquiries about the token are tracked by the token server.

    摘要: A system includes a device and a payload warehouse. The device receives a user request to initiate a feature of the device. In response to receiving the request, device information is provided to a payload warehouse. The payload warehouse stores an inventory which includes a digital payload. The digital payload includes data, such as a digital certificate, which may be used by the device to implement the user-requested feature. The payload warehouse receives the device information provided by the device and determines an encryption vector based at least in part on the received device information. Using the encryption vector, the digital payload is encrypted. The encrypted digital payload is provided to the device.

    摘要: An apparatus stores a security token in a memory associated with the apparatus. The security token is a software security artifact used to uniquely identify the apparatus. The apparatus receives a query message to provide the security token. The apparatus transmits the security token to be verified. In response to the security token being verified, the apparatus participates in a secured communication channel with a user device. The apparatus receives a second security token that is used for a subsequent authentication of the apparatus. The apparatus stores the second security token in the memory.
