Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau for responder and transmitter) are equipped with an electronic chip within their heads. When the key is put into a vehicle equipped with transponder technology, the chip sends out an insignificant message to a receiver that is located near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal, it will cause the engine to turn on. Transponder chips were designed to deter car thieves which is why they are present in a majority of modern automobiles.

During World War II, coded messages were sent over radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, they've been commonplace on new cars and are also retrofitted to older models.

If your car has this security feature, you must always have an extra key, as the chip can only function effectively if it's scanned. But this isn't 100% secure and some have discovered ways to fool the transponder system. These include tutorials and kits that explain how to bypass it using electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity keys

Proximity keys are the most recent keyless entry technology that is becoming popular across a variety of vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their cars by simply touching the door handle with the key fob they carry in their pocket or bag. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allows it to begin.

However proximity key systems come with some disadvantages. If the key fob is lost or damaged the fob isn't usable to start the car. It's costly to find a locksmith or a dealership to replace it. The fobs are also powered by batteries, meaning they'll have to be replaced regularly.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver receives the signal and opens or turns off your car. It can also detect a driver's presence and adjust the car's settings in accordance with their preferences. For example, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, the system will recognize this and shut the doors.

Although most keyless entry systems are secure, some of them are vulnerable to attack. For instance the term replay attack refers to when the initial remote control signal is recorded, and then sent again to the device at a later time. This can be avoided by using an algorithm in the keyless entry system, which ensures that every transmission is different from previous ones.

Keyless entry also has the advantage that it doesn't require changing locks each when a tenant moves out. It's costly to change locks following every turnover of a tenant and therefore it is sensible that landlords avoid this cost as much as they can.
