Abstract

The use of wearable devices in conjunction with smartphone applications is at an all-time high and still growing daily. These devices communicate between themselves as well as with remote servers, and research indicates that all these communication bridges create some security and privacy-related issues. This paper will discuss and analyze the difference between a low-end and a high-end wrist wearable device in terms of their security and privacy measures. It will focus the results on what can be obtained from analyzing the Bluetooth communication and the device's official mobile application. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
