Personal Area Network (PAN): A network arrangement that interconnects devices within the reach of an individual person, typically within a range of 10 meters. This could include devices such as smartphones, laptops, wearable devices, or smart home devices. The security considerations for a PAN involve ensuring secure communications between devices, controlling access to devices, and protecting the data stored or transmitted within the network.
