Transponder Keys

Contrary to the flat metal keys which operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys are equipped with an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that has transponder technology, the chip sends an low-level signal to the receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to start, provided that it is programmed to it. Transponder chips are made to protect cars from theft, which is why most modern vehicles use them.

During World War II, coded messages were transmitted via radio frequencies in order to determine if an aircraft was friendly or hostile.

Proximity keys

Proximity Keys are the newest keyless entry technology that is becoming popular in a variety of automobiles. They permit drivers to unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle with the key fob that is in their bag or pocket. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers and allowing it to start.

With proximity-sensing keys, you'll need to be within a certain distance of the vehicle to activate it.

Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks despite being very secure. A replay attack, for example is when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded and sent again at a later date. However, this could be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system a method which ensures that each transmission is different from all previous ones.
