Transponder Keys

Unlike flat metal keys that are mechanically operated with cuts on the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys have an electronic microchip embedded in their key heads. When they are fitted into a car which uses transponder technology the chip transmits low-level signals to a receiver that is located near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start, if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to protect cars from theft which is why they are in use in many modern automobiles.

Transponder technology was first used during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine if aircraft incoming were friendly or hostile. The same concept was later applied to car keys and keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, a majority of new cars come with these keys, and they're also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to include the transponder chip.

If you own a vehicle equipped with this type of security system, make sure you always keep an extra transponder key on hand, as it only works when the chip is read correctly. It isn't foolproof. Some people have found ways to trick the system. These kits include tutorials explaining how to bypass the transponder by using electrical relays and wires.

Proximity Keys

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys in the home are long gone and landlords can give tenants more security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems are linked to back-end software, allowing the landlord to monitor entry and exit. In addition, these systems make it easier for tenants to access the property in case of a crisis.

Keyless entry works by sending encrypted signals to a receiver inside the car. The receiver reads the signal and unlocks your car or starts it. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust the settings of the vehicle in accordance with their preferences. It will shut the door, for instance the driver has an item in his bag.

Certain keyless entry systems can be vulnerable to attacks despite being very secure. For example a replay attack occurs where the original remote control signal is recorded, and then repeated to the device at a later time. This can be prevented by creating an algorithm for the keyless entry system to ensure that every transmission is distinct from previous ones.

A keyless entry system has the advantage that it does not require you to change locks each when a tenant moves out. It's costly to change locks following every turnover of a tenant and it is therefore sensible that landlords try to avoid this expense as much as they can. If you have a keyless system, all you have to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and easier than replacing the lock.
