Controlling connectivity of a wireless-enabled peripheral device

1. A system comprising:

a wireless-enabled peripheral device configured to be coupled to a personalized security device, the wireless-enabled peripheral device having a wireless communication interface; and

a mobile device configured to establish a wireless connection with the wireless-enabled peripheral device via the wireless communication interface,

whereupon establishment of the wireless connection, the mobile device is further configured, to control at least one contemporaneous connection currently established between the wireless-enabled peripheral device and one or more other devices attempting to access the personalized security device, wherein the mobile device is to control the contemporaneous connection by enabling cancellation thereof.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mobile device comprises a display, and wherein, in response to detecting an attempt to establish the wireless connection with the wireless-enabled peripheral device, the mobile device is configured to display on the display a prompt for input of an authorization password.

3. The system as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the mobile device comprises an input component and wherein the mobile device is configured to establish the wireless connection with the wireless-enabled peripheral device in response to receiving the authorization password via the input component.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wireless connection between the mobile device and the wireless-enabled peripheral device is a wireless personal area network connection.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wireless connection between the mobile device and the wireless-enabled peripheral device is a wireless local area network connection.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the contemporaneous connections is a direct wired connection.

7. A method to be performed by a mobile device, the method comprising:

establishing a wireless connection with a wireless-enabled peripheral device via a wireless communication interface of the wireless-enabled peripheral device in order for the mobile device to access a personalized security device when the personalized security device is coupled to the wireless-enabled peripheral device; and

upon establishment of the wireless connection, controlling at least one contemporaneous connection currently established between the wireless-enabled peripheral device and one or more other devices attempting to access the personalized security device, wherein controlling the contemporaneous connection comprises enabling cancellation thereof.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , further comprising:

in response to detecting an attempt to establish the wireless connection with the wireless-enabled peripheral device, displaying a prompt on a display of the mobile device for input of an authorization password.

9. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the wireless connection with the wireless-enabled peripheral device is established in response to receiving the authorization password via an input component of the mobile device.

10. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the wireless connection between the mobile device and the wireless-enabled peripheral device is a wireless personal area network connection.

11. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the wireless connection between the mobile device and the wireless-enabled peripheral device is a wireless local area network connection.

12. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein at least one of the contemporaneous connections is a direct wired connection.
