Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau that translates to responder and transmitter) contain an electronic chip embedded in their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle which uses transponder technology the chip transmits a low-level signal to a receiver located close to the ignition switch. This causes the engine to begin, if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips were created to deter car thieves which is why they are present in a majority of modern cars.

In World War II, coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies in order to determine whether an aircraft was friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette. Since then, most new cars are equipped with them, and they're also popular for older models that are retrofitted to include them.

If you own a car equipped with this type of security system, you should always have an extra transponder keys on hand, as it only works in the event that the chip is scanned properly. However, this isn't foolproof and some people have discovered methods to fool the transponder system, such as kits and tutorials that explain how to bypass it using electrical relays and wiring.

Proximity keys

Proximity keys are the newest keyless entry technologies, which are becoming popular on a number of vehicles. The key fob can be stored in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob then communicates with the car, removing the immobiliser while allowing the engine to begin.

There are a few disadvantages with proximity key systems however. If the key fob is damaged or lost it won't be able to start the car. A locksmith or a dealership will need to replace it, and this can be expensive. Batteries also provide power to the fobs. So they'll need to be changed often.

Another disadvantage of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect cycle that we're familiar with when it comes to physical keys. With a traditional key if you touch the lock and it opens, you'll 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 these drawbacks the proximity keys are a great innovation for drivers who want avoid locking themselves out their cars. In the event of an emergencies, always keep a backup key handy if you own a proximity key. If you need a replacement key, contact the local Pop-A Lock to inquire about replacement costs and to get a quote for services.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of storing keys outside of the home are long gone, and landlords can offer tenants better security by installing the keyless entry system. These systems are synced with back-end programs, allowing the landlord to monitor the process of entry and exit. Additionally, these systems make it simpler for tenants to gain access to the property in case of a crisis.

Keyless entry systems transmit encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver detects the signal and then unlocks or starts the engine. It also detects the presence of a driver and adjust the car's settings according to their preferences. For example, if the driver is carrying a bag in their hands, it will detect this and automatically close the doors.

Some keyless entry systems can be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are very secure. A replay attack, for instance, is when the remote control signal sent by the device is recorded, and then transmitted again at a later date. This can be avoided by adding an algorithm to the keyless entry system to ensure that each transmission is distinct from the previous ones.

Another benefit of keyless entry systems is that it doesn't require changing locks after every tenant turnover. It is expensive to change locks every time a tenant moves out and it is therefore sensible that landlords try to avoid this expense as much as possible. With a keyless system, all you have to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and easier than replacing the lock.
