Bluetooth: The Global Technology?
- Abstract
- The purpose of the paper is to familiarize you with the Bluetooth specification, its capabilities, and associated security concerns with regards to implementation. The security features inherent to Bluetooth are adequate for ad hoc networks, and data transfer of non-sensitive information. Additionally, the 10 cm transmission range of Bluetooth devices operating with a maximum output power of 1 mW provides adequate security for money transfers, and transmission of sensitive data. Information integrity problems will primarily result from users using the wrong maximum output power.
