Abstract:
Systems and methods are described to enable management of an asset to be transferred from a first entity to a second entity such that an Information Manager that stores information for the asset can authenticate the management transfer when the second entity requests the Information Manager to access or modify the stored information for the asset. Authentication is enabled using a token assigned to the asset by the Information Manager which is provided to the first entity by the Information Manager, transferred from the first entity to the second entity following the transfer of management and provided to the Information Manager by the second entity to enable authentication of the request by the second entity to access or modify the stored information for the asset. In an embodiment, the asset may be a WiFi access point or Bluetooth beacon and the Information Manager may be a National Emergency Address Manager.
