Abstract
Bluetooth is the key technology in the wireless connection of many Internet of Things (IoT) devices, especially focused on smartphones today. In addition, Bluetooth communication between the IoT device and the user is mainly performed via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), but as the Bluetooth technology gradually develops, the security vulnerability of the existing BLE is more prominent. Research on Bluetooth accessibility has been conducted steadily so far, but there is lack of research for data protection in Bluetooth communication. Therefore, in this paper, when sending and receiving data in BLE communication between IoT and users, we propose effective methods for communicating with each other through the Format Preserving Encryption Algorithm (FEA), not the plain text, and measures performance of FEA which is optimized in Arduino and PC.
