The system then needs to be configured and managed through a central console, or through a smartphone application. According to Technavio the global keyless entry system market is expected to grow at an annual growth rate between 2016 and 2022 of 11.8%.

This poses a serious security risk as criminals know where they keep their keys, and can easily locate them. Installing a keyless entry in your home is the best option to stop this. This will ensure that you aren't ever being locked out of your home.

Transponder Chip

The transponder chip or "chip key" is an electronic micro-chip built into the head of your car key, it's also one of the most important security measures in your vehicle. The word transponder is derived from the combination of transmitter and responder that is why, once the key is inserted into the ignition and then turned, the antenna ring on your vehicle transmits a jolt of radio frequency energy to the transponder chip. The chip then responds with its own unique identification code to the antenna ring and the car's computer can then decipher that information and determine whether or not it is a genuine key.

The key must be a transponder key to start the car, if it is not, then the vehicle will remain unresponsive. The chip is protected by a special polycarbonate coating that prevents it from being cloned with regular mechanical keys or copied with laser equipment. Beishir Lock and Security offers the largest selection of transponder keys at a fraction of the cost of car dealers.

Immobiliser System

The engine immobiliser system (also called the anti-theft system) is a vital aspect of your car's security. When you insert your key into the ignition switch or Smart Key fob, the transponder chip inside transmits a code to the vehicle's Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ECU ensures that the code sent from the chip matches the one stored in it before it allows the engine to start.

Your car's immobiliser is designed to protect you from theft in this way. If the code on the chip doesn't match it, the ECU stops the flow of current to the fuel pump relay as well as the injection system, keeping the engine from beginning. The immobiliser might also disable the starter motor or ignition coil to prevent the engine from being forced to start.

Unfortunately the system isn't impervious to hacks. The code that unlocks the immobiliser of your car can be cracked by thieves and used to start it. The latest versions of the system employ the longer cryptographic code which makes it more difficult to guess.

Since 1998 immobilisers on cars have been obligatory. However, a lot of cars already had rudimentary systems installed. It's also worth noting that even though an immobiliser system makes it more difficult to steal a car it does not stop thieves from towing away or breaking into the vehicle to get at your possessions.

Key Replacement

If you lose your remote or key fob it could be an issue and can be very costly. Locksmiths must gain access to the vehicle and decode the VIN or run it and then reprogram the new replacement key to erase any previous signatures on the computer for all keys that have been stolen or lost.

A key replacement will be more expensive if you own a car that has a transponder or integrated security chip. These chips transmit signals to the car that confirms your identity as the driver, allowing the doors to open and the engine to start. The cost of an intelligent key replacement is $160.
