摘要

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, in an on-boarding system for a first network, a request to transfer ownership of a first device to a new owner; receiving, in the on-boarding system, notification information from a spectrum analyzer regarding wireless signal information within the first network; determining if a potential attacker is within a radio range of the first network based on the wireless signal information; responsive to determining that the potential attacker is within the radio range, manipulating a signal strength of the on-boarding system and the first device; and performing a native communication protocol between the on-boarding system and the first device to communicate ownership information to execute the ownership transfer to the new owner, and to cause the first device to store the ownership information in a storage of the first device.
