Abstract

The number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has increased dramatically in recent years, and Bluetooth technology is critical for communication between IoT devices. It is possible to protect electronic communications, the Internet of Things (IoT), and big data from malware and data theft with BlueZ’s Bluetooth File Transfer Filter (BTF). It can use a configurable filter to block unauthorized Bluetooth file transfers. The BTF is available for various Linux distributions and can protect many Bluetooth-enabled devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and the Internet of Things. However, the increased number and density of Bluetooth devices have also created a serious problem—the Bluetooth worm. It poses a severe threat to the security of Bluetooth devices. In this paper, we propose a Bluetooth OBEX Proxy (BOP) to filter malicious files transferred to devices via the OBEX system service in BlueZ. The method described in this article prevents illegal Bluetooth file transfers, defending big data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and electronic communications from malware and data theft. It also protects numerous Bluetooth devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and the Internet of Things, with many Linux distributions. Overall, the detection findings were entirely accurate, with zero false positives and 2.29% misses.
使用蓝牙OBEX代理保护物联网设备免受蓝牙蠕虫攻击
近年来,物联网(IoT)设备的数量急剧增加,蓝牙技术对于物联网设备之间的通信至关重要。借助BlueZ的蓝牙文件传输过滤器(BTF),可以保护电子通信、物联网(IoT)和大数据免受恶意软件和数据盗窃。它可以使用一个可配置的过滤器来阻止未经授权的蓝牙文件传输。BTF可用于各种Linux发行版,可以保护许多支持蓝牙的设备,包括智能手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑和物联网。然而,蓝牙设备数量和密度的增加也带来了一个严重的问题——蓝牙蠕虫。这对蓝牙设备的安全性构成了严重的威胁。在本文中,我们提出了一个蓝牙OBEX代理(BOP)来过滤通过蓝牙OBEX系统服务传输到设备的恶意文件。本文中描述的方法可以防止非法蓝牙文件传输,保护大数据,物联网(IoT)和电子通信免受恶意软件和数据盗窃。它还可以保护许多蓝牙设备,包括智能手机、平板电脑、笔记本电脑和许多Linux发行版的物联网。总的来说,检测结果是完全准确的,零假阳性和2.29%的遗漏。
