Bluebugging refers to a skilled hacker who has accessed a cell phone's commands using Bluetooth technology without the owner's permission or knowledge. Bluebugging allows the hacker to make phone calls, send messages, read and write contacts and calendar events, eavesdrop on phone conversations, and connect to the Internet. Just like all Bluetooth attacks, the hacker must be within a 30 ft. range. Bluebugging and bluesnarfing are separate security issues, and phones that are vulnerable to one are not necessarily vulnerable to the other. |
