Since s13x v2.0.0 we also support LE Secure Connections (on both 51 and 52)

All the Nordic softdevices for both the chips are BTLE 4.2 compliant and they all support OOB and MITM protection, and have for many versions.

Which your Nordic Chips support Bluetooth 4.2? Does nRF51822 support Bluetooth 4.2 Serurity function such as OOB and MITM?

Hi there,

Your question is too vague, I suggest you first read up a little bit on the available security mechanisms in the Bluetooth Low Energy spec before you actually try to make a choice. In particular:

Pairing and Bonding (with and without MITM, with and without LE Secure Conections)
Encryption establishment using LTK
Privacy, resolvable address generation and resolution and IRK

There are multiple sources out there (both free on the internet and available in the form of books) to learn about those. The Nordic SoftDevices support almost all features.
