More and more computing devices are coming into existence every day, which may vary in size, capabilities, mode of interaction, and so on. As a result we are moving toward a world in which computing is omnipresent. Many modern devices (e.g., smart printers, PDAs, smart phones, and cameras) support multiple communication channels and almost all of them use wireless technology in some form, such as Bluetooth, Infrared, Wibree, Zigbee, 802.11, IrDA, or ultrasound. Having wireless technology in these devices does not guarantee that all of these devices can also take advantage of Internet technology. However, those wireless-enabled devices that cannot connect to Internet can still take advantage of other colocated devices in the vicinity by forming shortterm or long-term associations on ad hoc basis: for example, pairing a Bluetooth-enabled headset with a mobile phone or an MP3 player (short term) and pairing of a PDA with home devices in order to control them wirelessly (long term). Some other examples of pairing from everyday life include pairing of a Bluetooth keyboard with a Desktop computer, pairing of a laptop with an access point or a printer through the use of a WiFi or Bluetooth, and pairing of two mobile phones to exchange the music files or other data. Since wireless communication is susceptible to eavesdropping, thus one can easily launch man-in-the-middle (MiTM), denial-of-service (DoS), or bidding-down attacks to break the secure pairing process. Therefore, the main goal of secure pairing research is to provide assurance of the identity of the devices participating in the pairing process and to secure them from being victims of eavesdropping attacks, such as MiTM attack. Achieving this goal is a challenging problem from both the security and the usability or user interaction points of view
