Abstract: A connection management device may be used to with a common API to allow a host device of a client to securely connect to a remote provider network. The host device may only be able to use a connection management device by using a defined set of commands of a common API. A hardware root of trust may be pre-provisioned with security data (e.g., client certificate, encryption keys). A connection command may be used that is not specific to any particular communication protocol (e.g., WiFi, cellular, wired protocol). In response to receiving the connection command from a host device, the connection management device may perform commands specific to the communication protocol of the connection management device to connect to a remote provider network, use the security data for authentication, and establish a connection in accordance with the communication protocol based on the authentication.
