September 5th, 2010

Discovering Bluetooth Devices: It is proved by the
Government Computer News Lab. It is also true that if extra
precaution is taken and the wireless devices are updated then a
serious crime like Bluetooth hack can be avoided. Bluetooth
uses radio frequencies to transfer data from one device to
another, while the WiFi establishes connection on a node and a
network by using IP addresses. Bluetooth is less complicated;
it creates small and simple connections among two peripherals.
The Bluetooth does not require the exchange of IP addresses.
This characteristic of the Bluetooth makes it safer than the
WiFi. Data is transferred from one Bluetooth device to another
during periodic pings. The WiFi on the other hand establishes a
consistent connection that can be easily intercepted by a third
party.
