Transponder Keys

Unlike flat metal keys that work mechanically using cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) keys have an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that is equipped with transponder technology the chip sends an unintentional signal to a receiver near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to transmit this signal it will trigger the engine to turn on. Transponder chips are made to guard against theft of cars and that is why the majority of modern cars have them.

Transponder technology first came into use during World War II, when encoded messages were sent over radio frequencies to determine whether aircraft arriving were friendly or hostile. The same idea was later applied to car keys in the form of General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in the year 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've been present on all new vehicles and are also retrofitted to older models.

Proximity Keys

Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technology, and are becoming more popular in a variety of vehicles. They permit drivers to unlock their vehicles by touching the door handle with the key fob that is in their pocket or bag. The key fob communicates with the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers, and permitting it to start.

However proximity key systems do have some disadvantages. If the key fob is damaged or lost it won't be able to start the car. It's expensive to find a locksmith or a dealership to replace it. Batteries also provide power to the fobs. So they'll need to be replaced often.

Another drawback of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect loop we're familiar with when it comes to physical keys. When you insert a traditional key and the lock opens, you know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys, you'll need to be within a certain distance from the vehicle to activate it.

Keyless Entry Systems

The days of storing keys in the home are long gone and landlords can provide tenants with greater security by installing keys-free entry systems. These systems are synchronized with back-end programs, allowing landlords to monitor entry and exit. Furthermore, these systems make it easier for tenants to gain access to the property in case of a crisis.

A keyless entry system sends encrypted signals to an inside receiver. The receiver receives the signal and unlocks or begins your car. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust the settings of the vehicle according to their preferences. For instance, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, it will detect this and automatically close the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems could be prone to attacks, even though they are generally very safe. For instance a replay attack occurs when the remote control signal is recorded and then transmitted to the device at a later time. This can be prevented by incorporating an algorithm into the keyless entry system to ensure that every transmission is different from previous ones.

Another benefit of a keyless entry system is that it does not need to change locks after each tenant's departure. This is a cost-effective part of the process for converting units, and it makes sense for landlords to reduce this expense as often as feasible.
