Securing Bluetooth-based payment system using honeypot

Wireless technologies provide a new channel for implementation of mobile payments systems. In this regard, the potential of short-range wireless technologies such as Bluetooth is enormous. These systems can be used for proximity payment to vending machines or offering banking service in the bank area. However, unsolved security issues are the biggest barriers to the growth of mobile payment. This paper is focused on the security of banking services which can be offered through Bluetooth technology. We propose a solution using honeypots in bank environment to mitigate the risk of Bluetooth-enabled payment transactions. In this paper, we try to elaborate how honeypot systems can be exploited to reduce the chance of Bluetooth enabled attacks' success by limiting the client device discoverability for attackers.
