Auth0 was chosen not solely for technological capability, but also for state-of-the-art security, top-notch documentation, excellent customer support, and a superior licensing model that was a right fit for Bluetooth. Auth0 allowed Bluetooth to keep their existing infrastructure in place, while adding the standards based authentication layer on top. This allowed the Bluetooth engineering team to quickly implement the solution across multiple disparate apps.

“Being a standards based organization, it was important for Bluetooth SIG to implement a standards based identity solution for our platform.” – Jeremy Syme, Director of Systems Engineering
