    I mean people who plan to connect remotely via Bluetooth are ****, also there have been strange changes in the address of the Internet provider in the past two days.

    Look, I often meet some people when I'm walking, and their phones make a sound of receiving messages, but I guess it's intimidation, similar to surveillance psychology, but some of them are ****** real...

    No, I write some experiences to share with the community. Then learn some methods of network security that will not be manipulated.

    Thanks, Bitdefender. You guys are the best 👍

  • Well, I guess I can provide some basic advice here. Now, if you are referring to ways to protect your Bluetooth connections, I can think of some good practices. For example, rule number one would be to turn off Bluetooth when you're not actively using it, to reduce exposure to potential threats. Another good practice in my opinion is to set your mobile device to non-discoverable (hidden) mode, unless you're actively pairing with a trusted device. And this may sound like common sense — always verify and approve pairing requests. Avoid accepting requests from unknown devices. To ensure proper device hygiene, regularly check paired devices in your Bluetooth settings and remove any that are unfamiliar.

    Finally, ensure that your mobile device's operating system and firmware are up to date to patch known vulnerabilities, and try to avoid using Bluetooth in public spaces without necessity.

    I hope this helps and thank you for your appreciation!

    👍🤝Thank you for your suggestion. There is no option to hide Bluetooth in the system. I will use various methods to protect its security. 👍

    I won't let it get damaged like the undersea internet cables in Denmark, if it does I will let you know.If I encounter any strange events again, I will make it public in the community for reference and viewing.
