*This abstract for appeared for patent application  number 17717321 Titled 'FAST IDENTITY ONLINE (FIDO) DEVICE ONBOARDING (FDO) PROTOCOL OWNERSHIP VOUCHER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM'

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a networked system that involves two owner systems and a voucher management system. The first owner system sends an ownership voucher to the voucher management system, which includes data for transferring ownership of a computing device from the first owner system to the voucher management system. The voucher management system then determines that the ownership of the computing device should be transferred to the second owner system. In response, it generates new ownership transfer data by signing the second owner system's public key with its own private key. This new data is included in the ownership voucher to transfer ownership of the computing device from the voucher management system to the second owner system.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A networked system includes a first owner system and a second owner system coupled to a voucher management system. The voucher management system receives, from the first owner system, an ownership voucher having first ownership transfer data including a voucher management system public key that has been signed by a first owner system private key in order to transfer ownership of a computing device from the first owner system to the voucher management system. The voucher management system determines that the ownership of the computing device should be transferred to the second owner system and, in response, automatically generates second ownership transfer data by signing a second owner system public key with a voucher management system private key, and provides the second ownership transfer data in the ownership voucher in order to transfer ownership of the computing device from the voucher management system to the second owner system.
