BLUETOOTH Security
The BLUETOOTH wireless technology has an authentication function, whic h allows you to determine with whom you choose
to communicate. With the authentication function, you can prevent any an onymous BLUETOOTH devices from accessing
your computer.
The first time two BLUETOOTH devices communicate, a common passkey (a password req uired for authentication) should
be determined for both devices to be registered. Once a device is regist ered, there is no need to re-enter the passkey.
✍
The passkey can be different each time, but must be the same at both ends.
For certain devices, such as a mouse, no passkey can be entered.
