Sumario:Nowadays IoT devices are a huge trend, present in a lot of people's routine, companies, public facilities and so on. The main reason for their raising popularity is mainly the huge range of use cases in which they can take part. This TFM is aimed at proposing and implementing an architecture able to provide security by design (having security as a premise in each designing step) withholding IoT devices in a supply chain scenario. Blockchain is the cornerstone of this project, due to the beneficious qualities it provides in regard of security. The obtained results are majorly satisfactory, battery tests indicate the performance of the proposed architecture yielding positive results yet there is room for improvement debriefed in future work section.
