I've lately realised there is no encryption or auth setting in the current bluez release..
Is there any way, to set the devices (especially newly plugged) to use secure communication?

Best regards to ALL that are answering on this list!!

Hi Radek,

the auth and encrypt settings were only activated security mode 3 and that is not what you actually wanted since it made a lot of device unusable and complicated things. The daemons can request authentication and encryption. And of course the remote device can also force authentication and encryption.
