Each service that the server provides can be configured to require:
•
Authorization -The server operator must acknowledge all connection
attempts before a connection is established.
•
Authentication -The server requires a Personal Identification Number (PIN)
code or a Link Key before a connection is established.
•
Encryption - All data sent between the Bluetooth client and Bluetooth server
is encrypted. The encryption key is based on the Authentication Link Key;
Encryption requires that Authentication be enabled.
The default security setting for Authorization, Authentication and Encryption is
disabled.
Devices can also be paired, a process that eliminates the need to enter a PIN code
every time access is attempted.

Authentication is used to verify identity; it requires a passkey or Link Key from the
remote device. When a remote device attempts access a visual and/or audio
warning notifies the local operator.
The local operator can open a dialog box that provides:
•
The user-friendly name of the device attempting access
•
The name of the local service that the remote device is attempting to access
•
A place for the local operator to enter a passkey.
The operator of the remote system must enter the identical passkey or access is
denied.
If the notification is ignored, access is denied after a preset timeout.
When devices are paired, those devices automatically exchange a Link Key and
Authentication is carried out without operator intervention.

Authorization is Yes or No, go-no-go security.
A visual and/or audio warning alerts the server operator that a remote device is
attempting to connect.
The server operator responds by clicking the Bluetooth icon in the Windows system
tray to open
