Robot identification manager

Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for identifying a robotic. The method includes receiving an authentication request for an unknown robotic device asserting to be a first robotic device. The method further includes receiving a first identification dataset for the first robotic device. The method further includes issuing an identification action to the unknown robotic device. The method further includes generating a second identification dataset for the unknown robotic device based upon a response to the identification action received from the unknown robotic device. The method further includes in response to determining the first identification dataset matches the second identification dataset, determining that the unknown robotic device is the first robotic device. The method further includes authenticating the unknown robotic device in response to determining that the unknown robotic device is the first robotic device.
