==== 2017 ==== In April 2017, security researchers at Armis discovered multiple exploits in the Bluetooth software in various platforms, including [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Linux]], Apple [[iOS]], and Google [[Android (operating system)|Android]]. These vulnerabilities are collectively called "[[BlueBorne]]". The exploits allow an attacker to connect to devices or systems without authentication and can give them "virtually full control over the device". Armis contacted Google, Microsoft, Apple, Samsung and Linux developers allowing them to patch their software before the coordinated announcement of the vulnerabilities on 12 September 2017.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.armis.com/blueborne/#/technical|title=BlueBorne Information from the Research Team β Armis Labs|work=armis|access-date=20 September 2017|archive-date=21 September 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170921075121/https://www.armis.com/blueborne/#/technical|url-status=live}}</ref>
