In this article, we focus on the new risks created by the widespread presence of Bluetooth-enabled devices carrying both potentially sensitive data and vulnerability-prone software. In particular, we show how this mix of technologies could become a vehicle for propagating malware that’s specifically crafted to extract information from smart phones.
