SECURITY
We have subjected the Nokia 9500 Communicator to a series of tests under both laboratory and real-life conditions. We can conrm that the device offers almost complete security protection. In carrying out the security tests described below, we used a specially congured WLAN router (ZyXEL ZyAIR G-2000) and several computer systems operating under Windows XP and Linux that were connected together to the Internet and intranet through the router. The test sequence was as follows: In the rst test phase, the Nokia 9500 Communicator was operated using factory settings with standardised port scans to identify any TCP and UDP ports that may be open. All of the ports (0-63535) were scanned. In the second step, the device was subjected to a SYN port scan (half open), which is also referred to as a stealth scan. Both test procedures were additionally carried out by other computer systems in order to identify any deviations that may have occurred in the results. The port scans (TCP connect and SYN/half open) carried out with an open wireless LAN connection did not reveal any open ports or unnecessary services that may ordinarily lead to security problems. Neither the automatic testing sequences of the testing organisations own security scanners nor the tests carried out manually revealed any weaknesses in security. The third and fourth testing procedures included intensive penetration testing lasting several hours. Several computer systems were used in these tests, launching simultaneous attacks against the Nokia 9500 Communicator. During these tests, the device was in standby mode; that means that it was not being actively used by anyone. In another test variation, the device was in active use by our test engineers to simulate everyday conditions. The penetration test consisted of all known denial of service (DoS) attack types as well as the exploitation of all weaknesses in
the system known at the time of the testing procedureoperating system, applications, CGI abuses, useless services, backdoors, security checks and so on. In addition, we used eEye Digital Securitys Common Hacker Attack Methods (CHAM), an articial intelligence technology designed to unearth unknown and concealed weaknesses in the system by simulating the thought processes of a hacker. In order to check wireless connectivity (WiFi, IEEE 802.1b), we used specically developed wireless weak-point scanners to analyse security techniques such as WEP (wired equivalent privacy) and WPA (WiFi protected access) and their encryption functions. We tested the security of the Bluetooth interface on the 9500 Communicator using snarf attacks and the bluejacking method in order to check whether access to diary entries and contact data could be made through an open Bluetooth interface. In summary, the Nokia 9500 Communicator successfully resisted all 7,770 different attack and security tests known at the time of testing during the days it was subjected to our testing procedures. The Common Hacker Attack Methods failed to nd any concealed or unknown security gaps in the devices operating system (Symbian). The device hardly showed any loss in performance during the tests that lasted several hours. Our security experts noticed that the Nokia 9500 Communicator sends DHCP requests on the IPv6 protocol due to its dual IP Stack. This increased security risk may lead to the Nokia 9500 Communicator representing a weak point in unsecured networks. The operating system manufacturer, Symbian, and Nokia should remedy this issue ASAP. Currently, there are no possibilities of checking this protocol. Apart from that, the lacking information and conguration possibilities prevent effective workarounds. Third-party protection software is only available for the IPv4, but not for the IPv6 protocol. The Nokia 9500 Communicator does not include any protection from viruses, Trojan horses, or malware as standard. We would refer users to the installation of third-party security solutions.

USABILITY

The Nokia 9500 Communicator presents the user with a complete ready-to-use solution that hardly leaves anything to be desired. The package contains PC synchronisation software, the Nokia PC Suite, USB connector cables, headset, tabletop recharging station and battery charger. The system is built around the Symbian OS7 series 80 operating system, and provides the user with a compact mobile ofce weighing just two hundred and thirty grams. The Nokia 9500 Communicator comes in an elegant and businesslike design. The keypad typical for mobile phones has a clear layout, and the good tactile qualities of the perfectly miniaturised standard keyboard on the inside make it almost possible for the user to use it blindfolded. The integrated ofce applications allow the user to work comfortably and conveniently on text documents and presentations while on the move. The device supports the most important functions of Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Excel from

their MS Ofce 97 versions onwards. Addresses and appointments can be synchronised with the corresponding PC applications using Nokia PC Suite supplied on the CD-ROM included in the package, regardless of whether you are using Bluetooth, infrared, or USB 2.0. SyncML support allows users to synchronise data using the mobile phone network. The Nokia 9500 Communicator shows a high degree of compatibility, which is especially useful to business users. The device is compatible with Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express address and appointment services, as well as those of Lotus Notes/Organizer 5.0 and 6.0. The Nokia 9500 Communicator as a large LCD display with a ne resolution of 940 x 200 pixels, or 65,536 colours. User data and software can be stored in the 80 MB internal memory. If more memory is needed, the Communicator is also compatible with MMC memory cards. The integrated VGA camerawhich also comes with a ashnot only takes photographs, but can also record video sequences. The picture quality is good considering the resolution, and longer video sequences are no problem due to the possibility of extending the memory. Apart from that, the Nokia 9500 Communicator offers two further possibilities for mobile voice communication: The user can use the Communicator closed as a mobile telephone from the front side of the device, or when opened up, as a hands-free telephone using the integrated speaker. The user can also work on the Communicator during a phone call (multitasking), and the microphone can be muted during conference calls. The Bluetooth interface works with the most common proles such as BNEP, GAP, le transfer, LAP, PAN, and others. The device also offers a high level of convenience in hands-free phoning using the Bluetooth headset. Apart from GPRS and Edge, the user can access the Internet or company intranet using wireless LAN (WLAN) at any time. The user can call up HTML 4.01/XHTML websites or fetch and send e-mails together with attachments using the IMAP4, POP3 and SMTP protocols supported at WLAN
hotspots in restaurants, cafes, train stations and airports. The Nokia VPN Client provides employees with the ideal equipment for mobile deployment. VPN technology allows secure e-mail fetching and sending as well as company server access. However, our test personnel were disappointed that the WLAN interface only supports the IEEE 802.11b standard with a maximum data transfer rate of 11 Mb/s instead of the new IEEE 802.11g standard, which allows data transfer rates of up to 125 Mb/s.

PERFORMANCE

In our test sequences, the Nokia 9500 Communicator showed very good performance results. There were no serious performance uctuations or system crashes during the whole testing period. The standard 1,300 mAh Li-ion battery included as standard with the device has a standby period of up to 300 hours with the WLAN function switched off. The maximum voice communication period averages ve hours according to the manufacturer.

PRICE/PERFORMANCE:

The list price of Euro 829 (without a mobile phone communications provider agreement) could make the Communicator very attractive to thieves, making it all the more important to use the protection functions built into the device. Entering a security code protects against unauthorised use and snooping into condential business data.The possibility of locking the system up by sending an SMS represents the next highest level of security. However, this should be used with caution. A key falling into the wrong hands could have very tedious consequences. In such cases, the only remaining option would be to have the SIM card replaced by the mobile phone communications provider in order to continue using the device. However, the integrated photo and video VGA camera as well as the exible range of applications justify the price of the Communicator. The large range of accessories supplied including the leather pouch, headset, and tabletop recharging station rounds off the package perfectly.

VERDICT

The Nokia 9500 Communicator has passed the test series with a very positive result. This is an excellently equipped mobile telephone with an integrated organiser t for everyday use. The good manufacturing quality, long battery life, and modern high-performance technology will especially appeal to business users. Apart from the ofce applications, the e-mail client and Web browser are available at any time along with the option of encrypted data connections with the company network using the Nokia VPN client. Triband operation [(E)GSM 900, GSM 1800 and GSM 1900 networks] with the option of automatic frequency-band switching enables users to use the mobile telephone in Europe, Africa, and the Far East. This complete functionality and software package makes the Nokia 9500 Communicator an ideal electronic partner and mobile ofce. The security problem concerning IPv6 should be addressed and remedied as soon as possible. These very good test results have earned the Nokia 9500 Communicator the ProtectStar Mobile Security AWARD for 2005, making it the rst mobile end unit to receive this award.

Data mover

You can use Data mover to move certain data, such as contacts and settings, from your Nokia 9200 series Communicator to your Nokia 9500 Communicator with infrared or a memory card. Before you start, make sure that there is enough free memory in your devices or memory card for the move. If there is less than 2 MB of free memory in the Nokia 9500 Communicator, you cannot move any data. Do not use the Nokia 9500 Communicator when using Data mover. If possible, switch off the cover phone. Make sure you have enough battery power, or connect the device to a charger.
There may be additional steps, depending on the type of data that you want to move, the method you want to use to move the data, the amount of free memory on your communicators or memory card, or the number of successful or unsuccessful data moves you have made previously. Make sure that the infrared ports of the devices are facing each other. Always read the instructions that Data mover provides on the display.
Note: Before you use an existing compatible memory card with your Nokia 9500 Communicator, you must convert the memory card with Data mover and reinstall the applications that you previously installed to the memory card. However, do not reinstall any pre-installed applications for the Nokia 9210 Communicator. Your Nokia 9500 Communicator contains a later version of these applications, and these later versions must be used with Nokia 9500 Communicator.

Sending data with Bluetooth
Copyright protections may prevent some images, ringing tones, and other content from being copied, modified, transferred or forwarded. There can be only one active Bluetooth connection at a time. 1. Open an application where the item you want to send is stored. For example, to send a photo to another device, open the Images application. 3. If you have searched for Bluetooth devices earlier, a list of the devices that were found previously is shown first. You can see a device icon and the device name. To start a new search, press Search again. To interrupt the search, press Stop. 4. Select the device you want to connect with, and press Select. 5. If the other device requires pairing before data can be transmitted, you are asked to enter a passcode. Create your own passcode (1-16 characters long, numeric), and agree with the owner of the other Bluetooth device to use the same code. The passcode is used only once, and you do not have to memorize it. Devices that do not have a user interface have a preset passcode. After pairing, the device is saved to the Paired devices page.
2. Select the item you want to send, press Menu, and select File > Send > Via Bluetooth.
6. When the connection has been established successfully, the note Sending. is shown.
Receiving data with Bluetooth
When you receive data with Bluetooth from a device that is not authorized, you are first asked if you want to accept the Bluetooth message. If you accept, the item is placed in the Inbox folder in the Messaging application. Tip: If the received item is not in the Inbox folder, go to Desk > Office > File manager, and view the contents of C:\My files\. If you want to receive data using Bluetooth, set Bluetooth to be active and select the option Shown to all.
