Study Notes

Bluetooth Pairing Process

Bluetooth pairing allows control over device communication with tablets and phones.
A unique phrase or PIN is often required for verification.
Pairing is a one-time setup; devices automatically connect thereafter.
Specific steps may vary depending on the device; consult the manufacturer.
Both devices must enable Bluetooth.
Devices must be placed into a "discoverable" mode.
This mode may involve specific key sequences or button presses.
The paired device appears on a list of available Bluetooth devices.
Select the desired device from the available list.
Enter a PIN or confirmation to complete pairing.
Test connectivity after pairing.

GPS Technology

Many mobile phones utilize GPS (Global Positioning System).
US Department of Defense created GPS using over 30 orbiting satellites.
Phones calculate location from signals from at least four satellites.
Timing differences from satellites determine longitude, latitude, and altitude.
GPS data displayed in mapping apps.
Phones use other sources like Wi-Fi and cellular towers to refine location.

Mobile Device Management (MDM)

MDM manages company-owned and employee-owned mobile devices (BYOD).
MDM allows a central console to manage configurations.
Important for securing company data stored on mobile devices.
Admins can choose to install, restrict, and disable apps via MDM.
MDM enables partitioning of company and personal data.
Secure data removal without affecting personal data.
MDM enables enhanced security (e.g., screen lock time, PIN/Biometrics).
Can automate email configurations and updates.
MDM can enforce two-factor authentication.
MDM can control and mandate app installation/ restriction.
