BLE Security Guide

Introduction

This guide is a comprehensive resource that will equip you with all the necessary information to securely implement Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communication. If you're new to BLE, I highly recommend starting with the Bluetooth Low Energy Fundamentals course available on Nordic Semiconductor's DevAcademy. This course will provide you with a solid introduction to the world of BLE.

In this guide, our main focus is on everything security related and on connection-oriented Bluetooth Low Energy communication. Unlike broadcast communication, which involves one device transmitting data to all devices within range, connection-oriented communication establishes a dedicated connection between devices for bi-directional communication. By following the guidelines and recommendations outlined in this guide, you will be able to confidently implement BLE communication with a strong emphasis on security.
