Transponder Keys
Unlike flat metal keys that operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys have an electronic microchip within their key heads. When they are placed in a car that uses transponder technology, the chip sends low-level signals to a receiver situated near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to do this it will cause the engine to start. Transponder chips are made to prevent car theft This is the reason that most modern cars use them.
Transponder technology was first introduced during World War II, when codes were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if incoming aircraft were friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette. Since then, transponder keys are commonplace on new cars, and can also be retrofitted to older models.
If your vehicle has this kind of security, then it is recommended to always have an extra key, as the chip can only function effectively if it's scanned. However, this isn't foolproof and some have discovered ways to evade the transponder system, such as tutorials and kits that show how to get around it using electrical relays and wiring.
Proximity Keys
Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technologies, which are now being used on a variety of vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their cars by touching the door handle with the key fob that is in their pocket or bag. The key fob then communicates with the car, disengaging the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to start.
There are some downsides with proximity key systems however. If the key fob is lost or damaged, it can't be used to start the car. It's costly to hire a locksmith or dealer to replace it. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll have to be replaced regularly.
The proximity key technology has the disadvantage of breaking the cause and effect cycle we are familiar with when using physical keys. If you're using a traditional key and the lock opens, you know that you have the key. You'll have to be within a certain distance to activate the proximity-sensing key.
Despite these limitations proximity keys are a fantastic invention for drivers who want to avoid locking themselves out their cars. In case of emergencies, always keep an emergency key with you if you have a proximity-key. If you require a replacement key, contact your local Pop-Alock to inquire about replacement costs and to request a quote for services.
Keyless Entry Systems
The days of hiding keys outside of the home are over and landlords can now provide tenants with better security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems are linked to back-end software, allowing landlords to track the entry and exit of tenants. These systems also make it easier for tenants who are in crisis to get into 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 recognize a driver's presence and adjust the vehicle settings according to their preferences. It will automatically shut the door if, for example the driver has an item in his hand.
Certain keyless entry systems may be vulnerable to attacks even though they are very secure. A replay attack, for instance occurs when the remote control signal from the device is recorded and transmitted again at a later date. However, this could be prevented by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm which ensures that each transmission is different from the previous ones.
Another benefit of keyless entry systems is that it does not require changing the locks after each tenant's turnover. It is expensive to change locks every time a tenant moves out which is why it is recommended that landlords cut down on this expense as much as possible. Furthermore, with a keyless entry system, all that is required is resetting the key, which is much faster and simpler than replacing the entire lock.
