A surprising amount of people don’t realize the dangers of Bluetooth. While this handy device-pairing protocol can save you a lot of hassle in transferring files or connecting devices wirelessly, it can also be an easy way for hackers to get into your phone if you do not use it responsibly.
Always make sure you recognize the device that you’re pairing with. It is easy to make a mistake and allow a rogue device to connect to your device.
Additionally, make sure to keep your device from being discoverable, try to keep your connection only as long as it’s necessary and always turn off Bluetooth when you are not using it.
