 Does ANT+ still comply with these new requirements?

&lt;p&gt;You can read more about this here &lt;a href="https://www.thisisant.com/business/go-ant/ant-brand/"&gt;https://www.thisisant.com/business/go-ant/ant-brand/&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2025/01/the-begining-of-the-end-for-ant-wireless.html"&gt;https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2025/01/the-begining-of-the-end-for-ant-wireless.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]Can the nRF52832 and nRF52840 ICs meet the hardware-related certification requirements?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Yes, but the cyber security requirements is specific to your product. &lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]Are there any requirements for the Bluetooth pairing mechanism, such as mandating a manual trigger (e.g., a button press) for the broadcaster to initiate advertising, to prevent unauthorized pairing by others?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;This should not be a problem as long as you have some kind of pairing mechanism&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]During Bluetooth pairing, is it mandatory to use the built-in Peer Manager to achieve encryption, or are other methods acceptable?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;No requirement here, the link will be encrypted when the device is in connection.&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]Is SDK 15.3 still usable for compliance, or is it necessary to switch to SDK 17?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;15.3 is very old and doesn&amp;#39;t have all errata fixes so it&amp;#39;s recommended to use SDK 17.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
