One of the most popular means of transport in the world is of course the car, thanks to which you can move around with remarkable agility, traffic permitting. Technology has also developed in this area: While the key previously had to be inserted into the lock, electronic keys have been developed over the years to open the car remotely. This way it is also easier to know where it is parked. Just go to where the car is and click on the remote control with ease.<\/p>\n

It is assumed that using this new key type is very secure, but this is not the case. In fact, it is said that to protect your car, it is better to wrap the key in aluminum foil.<\/p>\n

What is safer: the key or the remote control?<\/p>\n

If you think that these remote controls are more secure than the simple metal key, you are wrong because that is not the case. In fact, there is a way to reproduce remote controls and electronic keys without the unfortunate person realizing that they have been stolen. Aluminum foil is an easy way to protect yourself from these inconveniences. When you click the button, electromagnetic waves are emitted and allow the machine to open. However, radio signals can be intercepted and reproduced by car thieves using a special key. This allows you to get into vehicles without anyone noticing.<\/p>\n

According to a former American Automobile Association (AAA) police officer, there is a method to prevent duplication of the car’s passcode: simply wrap the electronic key or remote in aluminum foil. The latter protects against fraud, even if it is not the most modern solution available, by creating a kind of barrier that isolates electromagnetic waves and thus prevents them from being intercepted and reproduced by cybercriminals. This practice is also used to protect credit cards to prevent their duplication.<\/p>\n

Many have wondered if it is really possible for your car to be stolen by duplicating the remote control signal, but apparently there are cases where this has happened: in the case of household appliances, the aluminum paper does not guarantee complete effectiveness, but in the absence of others , more reliable tools, it is worth wrapping the car keys in foil.<\/p>\n\n
