Keyless entry systems work by transmitting encrypted signals to an internal receiver within the car. The receiver reads the signal and unlocks or begins your car. It also can detect the presence of drivers and adjust the vehicle settings to accommodate their preferences. It will shut the door if, for example the driver has bags in his hands.

Certain keyless entry systems may be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are very safe.

However, this could be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system a method that ensures that every transmission is distinct from previous ones.
