Assessment Title
Rule Text
The macOS system must disable Bluetooth Sharing.
Description
Discussion Text
Bluetooth Sharing must be disabled.
Bluetooth Sharing allows users to wirelessly transmit files between the macOS and Bluetooth-enabled devices, including personally owned cellphones and tablets. A malicious user might introduce viruses or malware onto the system or extract sensitive files via Bluetooth Sharing. When Bluetooth Sharing is disabled, this risk is mitigated.
[NOTE]
