Use this code to get device information. 

            Windows.Security.ExchangeActiveSyncProvisioning.EasClientDeviceInformation deviceInfo= new Windows.Security.ExchangeActiveSyncProvisioning.EasClientDeviceInformation();

I've extracted a code sample from the Microsoft's IoT Sample (IoTCoreDefaultApp) that might helpful to you to extract device information (unfortunately, processor serial number never exposed for programming).

Usually this is within the Windows.System.Profile.HardwareIdentification namespace. Unfortunately, that's one of the unsupported namespaces with Win10 IoT Core.

Instead, to identify the metal, I'm using info from the network adaptor(s):

    public static HashSet<string> NetworkIds()
    {
        var result = new HashSet<string>();

        var networkProfiles = Windows.Networking.Connectivity.NetworkInformation.GetConnectionProfiles().ToList();

        foreach (var net in networkProfiles)
        {
            result.Add(net.NetworkAdapter.NetworkAdapterId.ToString());
        }

        return result;
    }

Of course, this is not completely error proof, but, so far, the only way I can see to get a reasonably reliable device ID.
