Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau for transmitter and responder) include an electronic chip embedded in their heads. When the key is inserted into a vehicle equipped with transponder technology it sends a low-level message to a receiver located near the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to start, when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are made to stop theft of cars, which is why most modern cars have them.

In World War II, coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies in order to determine whether an aircraft was friendly or hostile. The same idea was later applied to keys for cars and keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they are used on the majority of new vehicles, and can also be retrofitted into older models.

If your car has this kind of security, you should always have a spare key on hand, as the chip will only work properly if it is scanned. It's not foolproof. Some people have found ways to fool this system. There are kits and tutorials that explain how to disable the transponder by using electrical relays and wires.

Proximity Keys

Proximity Keys are one of the newest keyless entry technologies that are becoming popular in a variety vehicles. The key fob can be carried in a pocket, or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob then communicates with the car, disengaging the immobiliser while allowing the engine to start.

There are some disadvantages to proximity key systems though. If the key fob is lost or damaged the fob isn't usable to start the vehicle. A locksmith or dealership will need to replace it, and this can be expensive. Batteries also provide power to the fobs. So they'll have to be replaced frequently.

Another drawback to proximity key technology is that it breaks the cause-and-effect cycle that we're familiar with when using physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, if you touch the lock and it opens, you know you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys you'll have to be within a certain distance from the vehicle to activate it.

Despite these disadvantages, proximity keys are a great innovation for drivers who want prevent locking themselves out of their vehicles. In case of emergency, make sure you have an emergency key with you if you own a proximity-key.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of storing a spare key outside the home are long gone, and landlords can provide tenants with better security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems sync to back-end programs and allow landlords to track entry and exit. These systems also aid tenants in a situation of crisis to access the property.

A keyless entry system sends encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver interprets the signal and unlocks or starts your car. It can also detect the presence of drivers and adjust the vehicle settings to suit their preferences. For example, if a driver is carrying a bag in their hands, it will detect this and shut the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks even though they are generally extremely secure. A replay attack, for example occurs when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded and then sent again at a later time. This can be avoided by creating an algorithm for the keyless entry system that ensures every transmission is different from previous ones.

A keyless entry system offers the benefit that it does not require you to change the locks each when a tenant moves out. This is a significant cost of the unit turnover process, and it makes sense for landlords to reduce this expense as often as feasible. With a keyless system all you need to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and less costly than replacing the lock.
