Securing BLE device Services & Characteristics from unauthorized user

Hello World !!

Suppose there is BLE device with following custom characteristics -
1. main
2. enc_text
3. plain_text
4. aes_key

"enc_text" characteristic receives 16 bytes of encrypted string.

"plain_text" characteristic receives 16 bytes of plain string.

"aes_key" characteristic receives 16 bytes of AES key.

int bt_encrypt_le(constu8_t key[16], const8_t plaintext[16], u8_t enc_data[16])

Using this function I'm planning to encrypting received plain string & gonna compare its output with
received encrypted string.

If both matches, then only "main" characteristic accepts data from client.

But what type of AES encryption is used behind this bt_encrypt_le( ) ?

How to disconnect BLE connection from BLE Device side ?

I wanna show "aes_key" characteristic only after device is in factory-reset mode.
Once it receive AES key from user, it should disappear. How to do that ?


Thanks !!
