The adoption rate of Bluetooth technology has been very fast. It is estimated that there will be around 1 billion users who will be using some Bluetooth devices one way or the other. The fast adoption rate has made the manufacturers and users to work on delivering products based on the latest version of Bluetooth which is v4.0. One of the major attacks on Bluetooth is the Man in the middle attack. This paper reviews the existing literature on various man in the middle attacks. The existing counter measures for thwarting the man in the middle attack are also discussed.
