♦ Authentication

Authentication is used to verify identity; it requires a passkey or link key from

the remote device. When an Authentication procedure is initiated by either local

device or remote device, a dialog is shown to ask for entering Bluetooth

Passkey. Only when passkeys from both sides are identical, can

authentication succeed.

♦ Authorization

Bluetooth authorization is the procedure to decide whether you are going to

allow some other Bluetooth devices to use Bluetooth services on your Bluetooth

devices. This procedure takes function in Bluetooth security Medium and

applies to Bluetooth services only.

♦ Encryption

When a Bluetooth link is encrypted, data are encrypted into unreadable data

using a secret key or password before they are sent in the air. Data are

decrypted after they reach the remote device using the same key or password

that was used to encrypt it.

♦ Pairing Devices

Pairing allows you to avoid entering access information each time a connection

is setup. Paired devices share a unique Link Key, which they exchange each

time they connect.
