Bluetooth and Security

Blue tooth has become standard on many devices, ranging from cell phones to laptops and when we receive a device Blue tooth is usually on. Did you know that if you have Blue tooth on "discovery mode" and have it always on, there is a security risk that somebody can pair up with your device and view all you information? So check you device and if you have it in "discovery mode" turn that off and just have it pair with the device you want. In general if you do not use it, just simply turn of Blue tooth. It can save you battery. :-)
