Prologue
This is the home of pam_blue, a dynamically loadable binary object for the linux security framework PAM (plugable authentication modules).
Bluepam is an extension for the common pam modules, give the user the ability for authenticaten via a bluetooth compatible device like a cell phone or various other bluetooth dongles (e.g. epox-presenter). Thue du the fact that a whole part of the bluetooth stack is implement in hardware it is relativ difficult to change the bluetoth hardware mac address which makes this module more secure.
PAM is a security framework that most Linux distributions have incorporated that gives you fine grained control over how users are authenticated.
