Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau that translates to responder and transmitter) have an electronic chip inside their heads. When they are fitted into a car that uses transponder technology, the chip sends low-level signals to a receiver located near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to do so it will cause the engine to start. Transponder chips were created to prevent car thieves and that is why they are in use in many modern vehicles.

Transponder technology was first introduced during World War II, when coded messages were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine whether aircraft incoming were friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette. Since then, they are used on the majority of new cars and are also retrofitted to older models.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of hiding keys outside of the home are long gone and landlords can now provide tenants with greater security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are synced to a back-end program and permit landlords to track entry and exit. These systems also allow tenants in crisis to get into the property.

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

Certain keyless entry systems may be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are extremely secure.
