Abstract

The Bluetooth is widely used to link cell phones to their accessories, and its security has not been considered a major problem. This research paper describes the critical problems and the risks that are identified in all Bluetooth-enabled kits that are tested. Also this paper will explain what Bluetooth is, how it works, and some of the vulnerabilities and risks associated with it.
