Azure IoT Hub | Features
Scale
Scales to millions of simultaneously
connected devices and millions of events
per second.
Device provisioning
Enables zero-touch, just-in-time device provisioning
to the right IoT hub without requiring human
intervention, enabling you to provision millions of
devices in a secure and scalable manner.
Device twins
Using Device twins, you can store, synchronize,
and query device metadata and state information
for each device that you connect to IoT Hub
Per-device authentication
Provision each device with its own security
key to enable it to connect to IoT Hub. The
IoT Hub identity registry stores device
identities and keys in a solution.
Rule Based D2C Message Routing
Route device-to-cloud messages to Azure services
based on declarative rules
Business Application Integration
IoT Hub integrates with Azure Event Grid. Use this
integration to configure other Azure services or
third-party applications to listen for IoT Hub
events.
IoT protocols & Device Library
Supports MQTT v3.1.1, HTTPS 1.1, or AMQP
1.0 protocols. s. Azure IoT device SDKs are
available and supported for Windows &
managed languages, such as C#, Java, & JS
Secure Bi-Direction Device-Cloud
Communication
The communication path between devices and
Azure IoT Hub is secured using industry-standard
Transport Layer Security (TLS) .
Firmware Update
Ability to do device firmware update using device
management services.
Schedule & Broadcast Jobs
Device management offers ability to
schedule or broadcast jobs on a subset of
devices.
File Upload from Device
Manage file upload from device to cloud.
Device Direct Methods
Ability to invoke direct device methods from cloud
back end app.

Security Features | Azure IoT Solution
• Unique Identity key (security tokens) for each
Device or on device X.509 Certificates
• Devices do not accept unsolicited network
connections
• All connections and routes in an outbound-
only fashion
• Devices only connect to or establish routes to
well-known services with which they are
peered, such as an Azure IoT Hub
• For a device to receive a command from the
backend, the device must initiate a
connection to check for any pending
commands to process.
• The communication path between devices
and Azure IoT Hub is secured using
industry-standard Transport Layer Security
(TLS).
• In order to protect devices from unsolicited
inbound connections, Azure IoT Hub does
not open any connection to the device. The
device initiates all connections.
• Azure IoT Hub durably stores messages for
devices and waits for the device to
connect.
• Using Azure Active Directory (AAD) for user
authentication and authorization, Azure IoT
Suite can provide a policy-based authorization
model for data in the cloud, enabling easy
access management that can be audited and
reviewed.
• Secure Device Provisioning
• Encryption of Data in DB
• Tokenized authentication for devices
• Database firewalls for additional security
