Systems and methods for use in binding internet of things devices with identities associated with users

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium including executable instructions for binding an IoT device with an identity of a user, which when executed by at least one processor of the IoT device, cause the at least one processor to:

• receive a request to pair the IoT device with a communication device associated with a user;
• detect one or more devices within range of the IoT device via wireless communication, the one or more device including the communication device;
• display the one or more detected devices to the user, for viewing by the user;
• receive a selection of said communication device;
• display a passcode to the user;
• establish pairing with the communication device, via the passcode, whereby a device ID of the IoT device is shared with the communication device;
• and
• receive, from the communication device, identifying data including a verified identity of the user and store the identifying data in memory of the IoT device, whereby the IoT device is provisioned with the identifying data and permitted to submit the identifying data in connection with an interaction by the user, via the IoT device.

A system for use in binding an IoT device with an identity of a user, whereby action, by the IoT device, may be attributed to the user, the system comprising:

• an identity network computing device configured to:
• receive an IoT device ID associated with an IoT device, from an application included in a communication device associated with a user;
• append the IoT device ID to an identity of the user in a memory of the identity network computing device, the identity of the user including identifying data for the user;
• receive a request indicator from the IoT device, the request indicator including the IoT device ID;
• seek authentication of the user at the communication device, via the application;
• and
• in response to the request indicator and the authentication of the user, provide, to the IoT device, via a software development kit (SDK) included in the IoT device, at least a portion of the identifying data from the identity of the user in the memory, thereby permitting the IoT device to share the at least a portion of the identifying data in interactions with relying parties.
