Transponder Keys
In contrast to flat metal keys that operate mechanically by cutting the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle that uses transponder technology, the chip transmits an unintentional signal to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. This causes the engine to start when it is programmed for it. Transponder chips were developed to prevent car thieves, which is why they are found in the majority of modern automobiles.
Transponder technology first came into use in World War II, when coded messages were transmitted on radio frequencies to determine whether aircraft arriving were friendly or hostile. The same concept was later applied to keys for cars, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip keys in 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, all new vehicles are equipped with keys that have transponder chips, and they are also popular for older models that can be retrofitted to incorporate the transponder chip.
If you own a car with this type of security system, make sure you always keep an extra transponder key in your car, as it will only work only if the chip has been scanned correctly. However, this isn't completely foolproof and some have discovered ways to evade the transponder system. These include tutorials and kits that explain how to get around it using electrical relays and wiring.
Proximity Keys
Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technology, and are becoming popular on a number of vehicles. They allow drivers to unlock their cars by simply touching the door handle with the key fob, which is kept in their pocket or bag. The key fob connects to the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers and allowing it to start.
There are a few drawbacks for proximity key systems however. If the fob of your key is damaged or lost, it will not be used to start your car. A locksmith or a dealership will need to replace it, which could be costly. Batteries also power the fobs, so they'll require replacing often.
Another drawback to proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause-and-effect cycle that we're familiar with when using physical keys. With a traditional key, when you touch the lock and it opens, you know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys you'll need to be within a certain distance from the car to activate it.
Despite their drawbacks proximity keys are an excellent invention for drivers who do not want to be locked out of their car. In the event of an emergencies, always keep an additional

Keyless Entry Systems
These systems are synchronized to back-end software, allowing landlords to monitor entry and exit. These systems are synced with back-end software that allows the landlord to monitor the entry and exit of tenants. These systems also make it easier for tenants in a emergency to gain access to the property.
Keyless entry systems work by transmitting encrypted signals an internal receiver within the car. The receiver interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It can also detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust settings to accommodate their preferences. It will automatically shut the door if, for example, the driver has an item in his bag.
Certain keyless entry systems may be vulnerable to attacks, even though they are generally extremely secure. A replay attack, for example is when the remote control signal from the device is recorded and then sent again at a later date. However, this could be thwarted by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that ensures each transmission differs from the previous ones.
Another advantage of the keyless entry system is that it doesn't require changing the locks after every tenant turnover. This is a significant cost of the unit turnover process and it is logical for landlords to avoid this expense whenever feasible. With a keyless system all you need to do is reset the code. This is much quicker and less costly than replacing the lock.
