"Provide self-sovereign identity to the users and devices in a Smart-HomeUse blockchain to make services, features and bugs of IoT devices transparent to all users!"

Implement blockchain-based storage (decentralized PKI) and accompanying clients for successful identity management based on X.509 certificates.

Goals of this thesis is to enable authentication of the entities in the Smart-Home system using certificates and public keys, while marking authentication using passwords as obsolete.

This solution will be integrated with already existing Smart-Home management framework, present on COSY:Lab.

for all types of sensors, which are used inside of Smart Home framework.

This storage should contain information on supported functionalities on the devices, combined with firmware versions of sensors. Moreover, this registry should support option of providing client-side feedback on some sensor services and whether they work properly, so that other Smart Home framework users can become more aware of possible malfunctions and/or security breaches inside their Smart Homes.

Ultimate goal is to achieve trust reputation network, which would make perfect match with blochain properties, such as : backward traceability, immutability and transparency.https://www.uport.me/
