Hi there, tell me if someone can get into my phone with a Bluetooth connection, is it possible? Are there some ways of protection? |

Hello Tyler! Bluetooth connections appear to be the most vulnerable, among all the others. Thus they are widely used. But with all their wide use and vulnerability – Bluetooth hacking is not a common thing. Although it exists and has a lot of names Bluesnarfing, Bluesjacking, Bluehacking etc. It’s uncommon because of a limited range of Bluetooth connection. Bluetooth works for up to 200 meters, but that’s in theory and depends on obstacles and weather. So, to perform a hack hacker must stay real close to you. You should know that Bluetooth uses 2.4 GHz frequency to transmit data and there are a lot of devices which use that frequency too. Jammer-Store can recommend a couple of protective measures, try to keep a device in the Bluetooth undiscoverable mode and keep it that way until you really need to use a connection. You may also try to set a complicated pin code on your Bluetooth. But keep in mind that those measures will not guarantee that you phone won’t be hacked. But a Bluejacking jamming device will! |
