Transponder Keys
Transponder keys (a portmanteau of responder and transmitter) include an electronic chip embedded in their heads. When they are inserted into a vehicle which uses transponder technology the chip transmits a low-level signal to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to transmit this signal it will trigger the engine to switch on. Transponder chips were designed to prevent car thieves, which is why they are in use in many modern automobiles.
In World War II, coded messages were transmitted via radio frequencies in order to determine whether an aircraft was hostile or friendly. The same concept was later applied to keys for cars, with General Motors creating the first transponder chip key in the year 1985 for its Corvette model. Since then, they've been commonplace on new cars, and can also be retrofitted to older models.
If your car is equipped with this kind of security, it is recommended to always have a spare key, as the chip can only function properly if it's been scanned. It's not foolproof. There are some who have discovered ways to fool this system. There are kits and tutorials on

Proximity Keys
Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technology, and are becoming popular on a variety vehicles. The key fob can be carried in a pocket, or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob connects to the vehicle, removing immobilisers from the vehicle and allowing it to start.
There are some downsides to proximity key systems however. If the key fob is lost or damaged it isn't able to start the car. A locksmith or a dealership will have to replace it, which could be costly. The fobs are also powered by batteries, and so they'll need to be periodically replaced.
The proximity key technology also has the disadvantage of removing the cause-and-effect cycle that we are all used to when using physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, if you touch the lock and it opens, you'll know that you have the key. With proximity-sensing keys you'll need to be within a certain distance of the vehicle to activate it.
Despite their downsides however, proximity keys are a great invention for drivers who do not want to lock themselves out of their car. In case of emergency, keep an extra key in case you own a proximity key. Contact your local Pop-Alock to inquire about services and costs.
Keyless Entry Systems
The days of storing keys in the home are long gone and landlords can provide tenants with greater security by installing an entry system that is keyless. These systems are synchronized with back-end software that allows landlords to track the process of entry and exit. In addition, these systems make it easier for tenants to get into the property in the event there is a need to enter the property in case of emergency.
A keyless entry system works by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver then interprets the signal and unlocks or starts the engine. It also detects the presence of a driver and adjust the settings of the vehicle according to their preferences. It will shut the door in the event that, for instance the driver has a bag in his hands.
Certain keyless entry systems could be vulnerable to attacks even though they are very secure. A replay attack, for instance, is when the remote control signal from the device is recorded and sent again at a later date. This can be prevented by adding an algorithm to the keyless entry system to ensure that each transmission is distinct from the previous one.
Keyless entry also offers the advantage of being a keyless entry system that does not require you to change locks every when a tenant moves out. This is a significant cost of the unit turnover process and it is logical for landlords to avoid this expense whenever possible. Moreover with a keyless access system all that is needed is resetting the key, which is much quicker and simpler than replacing the entire lock.
