I have a small dental office I consult for he toured an office in the Detroit, mi area Said they were using normal Bluetooth KB. It came up in another thread are these devices secure?
I’d like to know that also, and if not what do you look for.
To my knowledge, the only real Bluetooth security thing you can change is pairing. I’ve never seen specs on any encryption, etc.
Anyone know about this or had to deal with this type of situation?

Most of the newer wireless keyboards use encryption between the device and the usb, so you should be good. There was an article a while back about how Microsoft keyboards were vulnerable to wireless keyloggers, but here is Microsoft’s response.
“Where Microsoft keyboards are concerned, customers using our Bluetooth-enabled keyboards are protected from this type of attack. In addition, users of our 2.4GHz wireless keyboard designs from July 2011 onwards are also protected because these keyboards use Advance Encryption Standard (AES) technology.”
And here is some info about Logitech’s security.
