## Description

* * *

Cumulocity now supports the ability to infer the full certificate chain from an intermediate certificate, enabling devices that are only able to send the device certificate to connect to Cumulocity. For full details refer to [Device authentication](https://cumulocity.com/docs/device-integration/device-integration-rest/#device-authentication).
