Question 1 of 30
In a smart manufacturing environment, a company is implementing a new IoT device provisioning strategy to streamline the onboarding of sensors and actuators. The provisioning process involves several steps, including device identification, authentication, and configuration. If the company decides to use a centralized provisioning server that utilizes a secure protocol for device communication, which of the following best describes the advantages of this approach compared to a decentralized provisioning method?
Centralized provisioning enhances security by ensuring that all devices are authenticated through a single trusted source, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and simplifying the management of security certificates.
Centralized provisioning allows for faster device deployment by enabling devices to connect to multiple provisioning servers simultaneously, thus increasing redundancy.
Centralized provisioning minimizes the need for network bandwidth as devices can communicate directly with each other without going through a server.
Centralized provisioning provides greater flexibility in device configuration by allowing each device to be configured independently without relying on a central authority.
