Transponder Keys

Instead of flat metal keys that are mechanically operated with cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip in their key heads. When the key is put into an automobile that uses transponder technology the chip sends an informational low-level message to the receiver located near the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to begin, if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are made to protect cars from theft, which is why most modern cars have them.

Transponder technology was first introduced during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted on radio frequencies to determine if the aircraft that was incoming was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, all new cars are equipped with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to incorporate the transponder chip.

If you own a car equipped with this kind of security system, it is recommended to always have an extra transponder key on hand, since it only works if the chip is scanned properly. But this isn't 100% secure, and some people have discovered methods to fool the transponder system, including kits and tutorials that explain how to bypass it using electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity Keys

Proximity Keys are one of the newest keyless entry innovations that are becoming popular in a variety of vehicles. They let drivers unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle with the key fob, which is kept in their bag or pocket. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allows it to start.

There are a few disadvantages with proximity key systems though. If the key fob becomes damaged or lost, it cannot be used to start your vehicle. It's costly to find a locksmith or a dealership to replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll need to be replaced frequently.

Another drawback to proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect loop we're used to with physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, when 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 of the vehicle to activate it.

Despite their drawbacks however, proximity keys are an amazing tool for drivers who do not want to be locked out of their vehicle. In the event of an emergency, make sure you have an emergency key with you if you have a proximity-key.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys in the home are over and landlords can give tenants more security by installing the keyless entry system. These systems are connected to a back-end program and permit landlords to keep track of entry and exit. These systems also aid tenants who are in situation of crisis to access the property.

Keyless entry systems transmit encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver interprets the signal and unlocks your car or starts it. It can also recognize a driver's presence and adjust the settings of the vehicle in accordance with their preferences. It will automatically shut the door if, for example the driver is carrying an item in his bag.

While most keyless entry systems are extremely secure, some are susceptible to attack. A replay attack, for example is when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded and sent again at a later date. This can be prevented by using an algorithm in the keyless entry system, which ensures that each transmission is unique from the previous one.

Another advantage of the keyless entry system is that it does not require changing the locks after every tenant's move. It's costly to change locks following every turnover of a tenant, so it makes sense that landlords stay away from this cost as much as they can. With a keyless system, all you need to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and easier than replacing the lock.
