Essay / Bluetooth - 1742
Over the past few years, our race has become overly dependent on technology, forcing us to develop electronic devices that allow us to transfer and share data more quickly and securely . However, this task of connecting different technologies has not been easy because most devices come with different operating systems, parts, connectors and protocols that need to be considered and considered before developing new ones. devices. As a result, it has been difficult to produce new technologies and protocols that allow these devices to connect easily. One such solution is Bluetooth, which will allow devices to connect wirelessly over a short range. However, like any other wireless network, Bluetooth is also prone to various types of hacking. What is Bluetooth? Bluetooth is a device that uses radio communication to wirelessly connect electronic devices such as cell phones, laptops and portable devices to connect to each other as well as to the Internet. According to Wikipedia.org, "communication distance varies from approximately 1 meter to a maximum of 100 meters." This suggests that the network is created using low-power radio waves. Devices using Bluetooth are capable of transferring data at a rate of 1 Mbps. Bluetooth technology was created to replace wired networks and establish communication over short ranges. How does Bluetooth work? Standard Bluetooth technology uses radio waves to create a wireless network between devices. To do this, a Bluetooth chip is inserted into the consumer's electronic device and peripherals to communicate with each other at a special frequency. The chip consists of a transmitter and a receiver called a transceiver. The transmitter chip transmits the data to the middle of the paper ......e in the form of business cards. Rob Schneirderman, in his article on communications security, rightly points out that "more than 20 million handheld PDAs and a billion mobile phones are in use today, but few companies have security policies in place to manage the use and protection of their wireless data. Bluetooth is a wireless technology and it is prone to many vulnerabilities and security issues, but when used carefully, it can really benefit the IT world and users in general. Security-conscious users will have to give up a few conveniences to ensure they receive secure data. Increasingly, Bluetooth device manufacturers understand the balance between security and convenience and are trying to design their devices in a way that encourages users to be more secure about the information they receive and send through their device..
