1. A multi-sensor hub for admitting a sensing device of one or more sensing devices to a network comprising:
a memory storing one or more computer-readable instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the one or more computer-readable instructions to:
verify a client user associated with the sensing device and the multi-sensor hub based on a profile configuration associated with the client user, wherein verifying the client user comprises requested verification from a multi-modal portal system connected to the multi-sensor hub;
discover a plurality of multi-sensor devices of the network, wherein at least one multi-sensor device of the plurality of multi-sensor devices is associated with the client user, and wherein the multi-sensor hub receives data from the one or more sensing devices directly or indirectly via one or more multi-sensor devices of the plurality of multi-sensor devices;
derive a relationship of the sensing device to the network based on a device identifier, of the profile configuration, associated with the sensing device; and
validate the sensing device, wherein validating the sensing device comprises:
determining a first multi-sensor device of the plurality of multi-sensor devices as a primary multi-sensor device based on the relationship, wherein the first multi-sensor device is connected to the multi-sensor hub;
associating the sensing device with the primary multi-sensor device via a primary connection so as to provide a first sensor data path for data associated with the sensing device to the multi-sensor hub;
determining a second multi-sensor device of the plurality of multi-sensor devices as a secondary multi-sensor device based on the relationship, wherein the second multi-sensor device is connected to the multi-sensor hub;
associating the sensing device with the secondary multi-sensor device via a secondary connection so as to provide a second sensor data path for data associated with the sensing device to the multi-sensor hub; and
admitting the sensing device to the network.
