Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Known hardware tampering Rare [2] Aura Studio 4 is a consumer Bluetooth speaker without advertised physical tamper-proofing; physical tamper protection would normally be mentioned in service/industrial products.
Known vulnerabilities Rare [3] Generic Bluetooth/stack vulnerabilities may apply at protocol level; I found no published exploit targeting Aura Studio 4 specifically.
Prior attacks Rare [4] No public prior attack incidents specific to Aura Studio 4 were found; absence of evidence ≠ proof of no incidents, but public record is empty.
Updatability Rare [5] Device supports software/firmware updates via Harman support/app, but there is limited public evidence of frequent security update cadence — conservative “Rare” (updatable but not demonstrably frequently patched).
Category score 2
System
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Authentication with other systems Partial [6] Partial — app/device pairing provides some identity association, but not a full enterprise-grade authentication integration.
Communications Encrypted with up-to-date encryption [7] Assuming standard Bluetooth encryption is used for audio streaming and pairing (LE/BR-EDR mechanisms). This is protocol-level encryption rather than application-level TLS.
Storage Encrypted with up-to-date encryption [8] Manufacturer does not publicly detail on-device encryption of storage; we conservatively assume typical protections for firmware and key material are in place but lack public proof.
Category score 2
User Authentication
Criterion Value Proof(s) Comment
Account management Full [9] Full in the sense of typical consumer app/device management (add/remove device, settings, theme control).
Authentication Basic [10] Basic = username/password or Bluetooth pairing; no public documentation of mandatory 2FA for Aura Studio 4 management.
Brute-force protection Exist [11] Presumed existence of basic protections (pairing timeouts, account rate-limit) — typical for consumer devices.
Event logging Partial logging [12] Partial — user-visible events (firmware update events, pairing activity) may be available; device likely does not maintain extended forensic logs.
Passwords Require change after setup [13] Conservative assumption: if an account is used in the Harman ecosystem, the app will prompt for secure credentials; however a forced change on first boot is not documented.
