Cyber Security WPAN and IOT

A wireless personal area network is a short distance wireless network interconnecting devices centered around the individual person works space.

WPANs address wireless networking and mobile computing devices such as PCs, PDAs, peripherals, cell phones, pagers and consumer electronics.

IEEE802.15 play a fundamental role in IOT (Internet of things). Smart devices are close in range to one another.

These devices are classified in three classes,

CLASS1 1 Devices:

USB adapters and wireless access points that can operate in a range upto 328 feet or in meters.

CLASS 2 Devices:

Device like mobile phones, smart card readers which works in 33 feet range.

CLASS 3 Devices:

Class devices 3 like Bluetooth adapters, keyboard or mobile phone to car speaker range upto 3 feet range.

Beaware of Bluetooth hacks,

Bluetooth background attack can happen without knowledge of victim, cyber security is important to consider,

• Blue Jacking
• Blue sniffing
• Blue snarfing 

RFID: Radio frequency identity:

RFID is a common uses are inventory control in retail stores, hospital pharmacy's and public. RFID signal range 10 centimetres to 100 meters.

Mobile Devices Information Markets:

• Mobile devices cyber security is important to keep the storage data safe.
• Hacked email or social media accounts are more valuable but profit margins unknown for personal data. It may cost around $65-$194 dollar.
• Corporate email account may cost around at $500.
