Análise da segurança e vulnerabilidades do padrão 802.15

Abstract

This research presents a study on the vulnerabilities of wireless networks using IEEE 802.15 (Bluetooth). Complemented by a field survey, the study identified several vulnerabilities in using this standard, as well as the ignorance of these vulnerabilities by their users. Discusses a theoretical survey on the Bluetooth technology, standardized by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) 802.15 and how this technology is present in daily life, which is being increasingly used today. Conceptualizes the TCP / IP, wireless networks and provides an analysis of the electromagnetic spectrum used by these networks. Regarding the frequency band Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM), shows the possible interference problems with other devices. Brings as a result of a study identifying the vulnerabilities of using IEEE 802.15 and presents ways to fix security flaws in the use made of this.
