     Bluejacking and bluesnarfing are the two forms of new intrusion. Bluejacking is a technique of sending anonymous messages to Bluetooth enabled device and bluesnarfing allows attackers to hack in and download data stored in mobile phones such as contact details and diary entries without leaving any trace [7].

     Stealing calendar and contact information via bluesnarfing requires both Bluetooth devices be on and available. The quickest and easiest way to avoid bluesnarfing (which requires about two to three minutes of continuous connection time) is to disable Bluetooth when not specifically in use.

     “Bluesnarfing”, sometimes also called Bluejacking and Podslurping, is the exploitation of Bluetooth-enabled devices. [[ […] ]] The most infamous instance of Bluesnarfing occurred in February 2005, when a Sidekick II mobile communication device owned by the celebrity Paris Hilton was compromised. Information contained on the device, including data and images, was stolen. Bluesnarfing occurs when an individual in relatively close proximity to the victim uses a Bluetooth-enabled device to remove data from a victim with another Bluetooth-enabled device.
