4 Low-Energy Secure Connections

The low-energy secure connections feature introduces a new security model. The feature uses an Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman (ECDH) algorithm for key generation, and it uses a new pairing procedure for the key exchange. This feature raises the bar and helps solve man-in-the-middle issues and other passive eavesdropping mechanisms.
