In this video I cover following topics:
* what is the Private CA (Certificate Authority) and why it is used in Internet of Things deployments
* how to setup the Private CA and use it to sign certificates for IoT devices
* how to generate self-signed and CA-signed x509 certificates
* how to establish trust between IoT devices based on x509 certificates
* how to encrypt MQTT messages using TLS
* how to verify the identity of a device based on the certificate it is presenting
* basic setup of Mosquitto MQTT broker
I am using Docker to setup the local lab environment. In my github repo you will find everything needed to replicate steps on your local computer:

All scripts and commands I am showing in this video are available in my github repo as well.
Feel free to ask any questions regarding topics covered in this video in comments.
