AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

UPnP technology poses security risks when smart home devices are connected to digital home networks. The lack of effective authentication mechanisms and encryption measures leads to the risk of data leakage and malicious control of devices. In addition, the centralized system management pressure is high and the single point trust problem is serious, making it impossible to share capabilities between smart home devices.

Method used

The nodes of the blockchain network are called through smart contracts to verify the signature validity of the device management request, and management operations are performed when the validity is verified, realizing decentralized authentication and authorization, sharing device capabilities based on the UPnP protocol, and encrypting data transmission.

Benefits of technology

It reduces the security risks of UPnP networks, ensures data security, improves the security of digital home networks, and achieves maximum utilization and seamless sharing of device capabilities.

Abstract

The present application discloses a device management method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium. The method includes: a first control point obtains a first request; the first request carries at least a first signature; the first request is used to request management of a device in a first network; the first network includes multiple devices; the multiple devices can communicate with each other based on the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol; the first control point is a device among the multiple devices whose computing capacity meets a first condition; through a smart contract, a first node of a second network is called to verify the validity of the first signature according to a preset endorsement policy to obtain a first verification result; and if the first verification result indicates that the validity of the first signature has been verified, a management operation corresponding to the first request is executed.
