In todays quickly developing world it is very important to keep track and change the architecture and security features of any system periodically because of the immense number of people trying to reverse engineer things to suit their own needs.In this document i have tried to provide an overview of the developing security architectures in Blutooth systems over the years and the flaws presented in previous designs.It also covers aspects of case studies which give an overview of the failures of previous security designs and how they have been improved upon. |

Unique Vulnerabilities and Attacks on Cellular Data Packet Services - Thesis
This thesis presents several vulnerabilities on the cellular data packet services and its applications, and present two particular denial of service attacks. First, we demonstrate an attack, which surreptitiously drains mobile devices’ battery power up to 22 times faster and therefore could render these devices useless before the end of business hours. This attack targets a unique resource bottleneck in mobile devices (the battery power) by exploiting an insecure cellular data service (MMS) and the insecure interaction between cellular data networks and the Internet (PDP context retention and the paging channel). Second, we propose a series of attacks on 3G cellular packet services that exploit the unverified channel condition reports from mobile devices to their base stations, and user-initiated handoffs. |

Bluetooth Worms: Models, Dynamics, and Defense Implications
Recent occurrences of mobile worms like Cabir, Mabirand CommWarrior have created growing concerns over the security of data stored on mobile devices such as cellphones and PDAs. These worms have in common that they all use Bluetooth communication as their infection channel.In order to prepare effective defense strategies against such worms, we study the nature, characteristics, and spreading dynamics of Bluetooth worms in the safe environment of simulation. |
