This makes them undetectable by diagnostic tools, silent, and unhackable. These systems can be attached to a variety of vehicles such as motorhomes and trucks, as well as plant machinery.

The reason it is so secure is because there is no requirement to add extra components like key fobs or LED indicators, or a remote. The device uses the buttons on your door and steering wheel instead to create a sequence that can be altered prior to the start of your car. This could be as long as 20 actions and functions similarly to the PIN code on credit card.
