Abstract
Provided is a method and apparatus for secured communication between Bluetooth devices. A temporary Bluetooth Device Address (BD_ADDR) is generated and set if a Bluetooth communication request is generated in a secured mode and Bluetooth communication is performed using the temporary BD_ADDR; when the Bluetooth communication is terminated, the temporary BD_ADDR is released and eliminated and a default BD_ADDR is set. Thus, it is possible to prevent another Bluetooth device from performing the Bluetooth communication without a bonding process, thereby enabling secured communication.
