**Frequency**: The radio frequency at which the protocol operates.
**Range**: The typical communication range between devices.
**Data Rate**: The maximum achievable data transmission speed.
**Security Features**:
- **AES-128 encryption**: A symmetric key encryption standard that provides good security.
- **WPA3/WPA2**: Security protocols for Wi-Fi networks, with WPA3 being the latest and most secure.
- **ECDH**: Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman, a secure key exchange protocol.
- **SIM-based security**: Utilizes the SIM card for secure key storage and authentication.
- **Secure boot**: Ensures the device boots using only software that is trusted by the device manufacturer.
- **TLS/SSL**: Protocols for securing data communications over networks.
- **DTLS**: Datagram Transport Layer Security, a derivative of TLS designed for datagram protocols.
- **ACLs**: Access Control Lists, which specify which users or system processes are granted access to objects.
