IVT BlueSoleil™ User Manual 3 Bluetooth Security 3.1 Introduction Bluetooth introduces security features to protect users from unauthorized access of local data and encrypt data in the air. Three levels of security is defined in Bluetooth: Low (no security): Local device will not initiate any security procedure. Medium (service-level enforced security): Local device does not initiate security procedures before user access local Bluetooth services.
IVT BlueSoleil™ User Manual 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.
IVT BlueSoleil™ User Manual 3.2.1 General Property Page Figure 3.1: Security Configuration Dialog Security Level Low When Low is checked, normally other devices may access your device freely, which means that they don't need to input the Bluetooth passkey. However, if the other device set its own security level to High, you are also required to input the passkey. Medium The medium level is service level security. You can assign access right for specified service to different devices.
IVT BlueSoleil™ User Manual Enable Data Encryption If the item is checked, the transmitted data will be encrypted into an unreadable format. 3.2.2 Devices Property Page Figure 3.2: Devices Property Page when you establish connection with a paired device, you needn't input a passkey again. A link key has been created and stored for the paired relationship.
