Transponder Keys

Transponder keys (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) contain an electronic chip embedded in their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that uses transponder technology, the chip sends an unintentional signal to a receiver that is located near the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start when it is programmed for it. 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 in World War II, when coded messages were transmitted on radio frequencies to determine whether the aircraft that was incoming was friendly or hostile. The same concept was later applied to car keys, with General Motors creating the first transponder key in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, all new cars come with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to incorporate the transponder chip.

These systems are synced to back-end software, allowing the landlord to monitor entry and exit. These systems also allow tenants in times of crisis to enter the property.

A keyless entry system works by sending encrypted signals to the receiver inside the car. The receiver then interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It can also recognize the presence of a driver and adjust the vehicle's settings in accordance with their preferences. It will shut the door, for instance the driver has an item in his hand.

While most keyless entry systems are extremely secure, some are vulnerable to attack. For instance a replay attack occurs when the initial remote control signal is recorded and sent back to the device at a later time. However, this can be prevented by incorporating into the keyless entry system a method that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from previous ones.
