I am referring to using an MQTT broker 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MQTT#MQTT_broker) as a replacement for 
dbus-daemon and using an MQTT client to connect and send messages to and 
distribute messages through that broker.

The above mentioned site states that the main advantages of MQTT brokers 
are:

     Eliminates vulnerable and insecure client connections when 
configured appropriately
     Easily scale from a single device to thousands
     Management and tracking of all client connection states, including 
security credentials and certificates, when so configured
     Reduced load on the network without compromising security, if so 
configured (cellular or satellite network)

If that meets your needs it may be usable.
