System and Method for Authentication and Cryptographic Ignition of Remote Devices

A method of remotely initializing at least one device comprising:

• initiating, at a local host device, a cryptographic authorization sequence after receiving a secure input value;
• receiving, at the local host device, a first authorization request including a first encryption value from a first remote device in communication with the local host device;
• receiving, at a local cryptographic controller, the first encryption value from the local host device in communication with the local cryptographic controller;
• encoding, at the local cryptographic controller, the first encryption value utilizing a first private key for the encoding;
• sending a first encoded encryption value from the local cryptographic controller to the local host device;
• sending, from the local host device to the first remote device, a first approval response including the first encoded encryption value;
• receiving, at the first remote device, the first approval response including the encoded encryption value;
• receiving, at a first remote cryptographic controller, the first encoded encryption value for verification from the first remote device in communication with the first remote cryptographic controller;
• decoding, at the first remote cryptographic controller, the first encryption value utilizing a first public key for the decoding;
• initializing the first remote device using the first approval response when the first encoded encryption value is decoded at the first remote cryptographic controller and the first encryption value is verified, wherein initializing the first remote device authorizes transitioning the first remote device to an active state to enable the first remote device to engage in one or more communications over a secured network;
• sending, from the first remote device to the local host device, a first acknowledgement message to acknowledge initialization of the remote device;
• receiving, at the local host device, the first acknowledgement message from the first remote device;
• securely sending, from the local host device to the first remote device, a public key infrastructure certificate containing a second private key;
• and
• securely receiving, at the first remote device, the public key infrastructure certificate containing the second private key.
