Bluetooth Security

Is Bluetooth Secured? What are the Vulnerabilities in Bluetooth?

 Bluetooth introduces a number of potentially serious security vulnerabilities.  

Bluetooth uses optional pre-shared key authentication and encryption algorithms that are  considered strong when both implemented and used correctly. 

The strength of Bluetooth security relies primarily on the length and randomness of the passkey used for Bluetooth pairing, during which devices mutually authenticate each other for the first time and set up a link key for later authentication and encryption.  

Bluetooth is by design a peer-to-peer network technology and typically lacks centralized administration and security enforcement infrastructure. 

Value of TOGAF Certification

Why should you become TOGAF Certified?

Enterprise Architecture (EA) will have a great  impact on the business to deliver  business value, according to Gartner, Inc.  

Enterprise Architecture Value Needs to Be Measured and Reported. According to OMB, the federal
executive branch  $75 billion was invested on information technology (IT) in fiscal
year 2012.

TOGAF, The Open Group Enterprise Architecture, acts as a blueprint for organizational change defined in models that describe (in both business and technology ) how the
entity operates today and how it intends to operate in the future.

TOGAF  also includes a plan for transitioning to this future state. Effective use of an
TOGAF as an enterprise architecture is a hallmark of successful organizations and can
be important to achieving operations and technology environments that
maximize institutional mission performance and outcomes. 

Realizing cost savings through consolidation and reuse of shared services and elimination of antiquated and redundant mission operations, enhancing information sharing through data
standardization and system integration, and optimizing service delivery through streamlining and normalization of business processes and mission operations.

Gartner Says Enterprise Architecture Must Become Business Outcome-Driven to Deliver Value

“Focusing on a standard EA framework doesn’t work,” said Brian Burke, research vice president at Gartner. “In the past EA practitioners focused on deliverables that were useful to enterprise architects but not valuable to senior management and/or did not respond to a specific business or IT need.“

 

 

 

Value of Systems Engineering

What are the Value of Systems Engineering

“…there is a strong case to be made for a  quantitative relationship between systems
engineering investment and the quality of  program performance.” – Eric Honour, Value of Systems
Engineering

How can we capture the value of  Systems Engineering?


Unsuccessful projects, in comparison to successful projects, expended:
– 50% less effort in mission definition
– 33% less effort in requirements engineering
– 33% less effort in scope management
– 40% more effort in systems architecting
– 60% more effort in implementation/integration
– 25% more effort in verification/validation


Bottom Line: Successful Projects Spent More Up Front in planning and understanding the problem, scope of management, and validating stakeholder's needs.

Bluetooth Training

Learn Bluetooth from the Experts

Bluetooth 4.0 introduces low energy technology applicable to Smart devices, Bluetooth LE

What is new in Bluetooth v4.0? It introduced Low Energy (LE)  technology to the Bluetooth Core Specification, enabling smart devices to have long lasting operation with tiny, coin-cell batteries. Markets that benefit from Bluetooth LE  includes: health care, entertainment, sports and fitness, mobility, security, lighting, signage, and home.

Key features of Bluetooth low energy wireless technology include:

• Ultra-low peak
• Long lifetime with standard, coin-cell batteries
• Lower cost of development and low costs products to consumers
• Openness and Interoperability
• Range and coverage enhancement

LTE Training - Long Term Evolution (LTE) Training

Long Term Evolution (LTE) Learning

by ADMIN on FEBRUARY 18, 2013

One interesting facet of the convergence of mobile broadband and IP world is this new emerging LTE , Long Term Evolution, technology that will take the place of traditional mobile networks globally in the near future. TONEX actually started its LTE Training in 2004 , which really has surprised many people. It’s better to learn LTE, VoLTE, LTE RF Engineering and LTE-Advanced now and become an expert in this field so you can have a leg up on the rest of the engineers when it’s time to get a job.

We also offer a LTE RF Planning and Engineering course where it teaches you LTE propagation modeling, planing and RF Optimization. It might seem complicated to you but these courses look pretty good.  The bottom line is that knowing LTE as a project manager, or being a LTE systems engineer can make for a very lucrative career choice.
