Hi Torbjorn

Thank very mutch that is a crystal clear answer to my initial first question.

Before closing the case I will if there in anything  for:

"2. - NRFFOSDK-13616: Updated handling of bonding events to be more sceptical of failed bonding/encryption attempts, since they can be the sign of an attack."

Is that what Avrebbek said "I am still waiting for more background on 2), but essentially if you get repeated failed pairing attempts it could be a sign that someone is trying to hack your connection by intercepting the pairing packets and trying to install themselves as a man in the middle. For this reason it is safer to disconnect when this situation occurs, rather than to repeatedly try to do pairing again. "

or there is more?
