Zusammenfassung:Methods, system, apparatuses, and computer program products for securely pairing a vehicle-mounted wireless sensor with a central device are disclosed. In a particular embodiment, securely pairing a vehicle-mounted wireless sensor with a central device in accordance with the present disclosure includes a vehicle sensor device pairing with a vehicle control system (VCS) using a pre-shared passkey. The pre-shared passkey is shared between the vehicle sensor device and the VCS via an out-of-band exchange. This embodiment also includes the vehicle sensor device transmitting an identifier for a resolvable private address (RPA) to the VCS. In addition, the vehicle sensor device communicates with the VCS using the RPA. In this example embodiment, the RPA is periodically regenerated by the vehicle sensor device.
