Many car manufacturers are asking keys to transmit not only the transponder's code, but also the unique VIN number. These additional security measures need special key programming procedures, which are typically not available to independent mechanics unless they are able to access a dealer-only tool such as Autel's Immobilizer Scan Tool (IM608) or Launch Tech's immobilizer scanner. It is essential to select an account number that is simple to remember, but difficult to be recognized by other people. This is why most experts recommend using an assortment of letters and numbers. It is also a good idea to avoid personal information such as birth dates, phone numbers or social security numbers as these can be easily guessed by hackers. To ensure your security ensure that your PIN has at least six digits long. This makes it more difficult for hackers to brute-force guess your PIN. However there are methods that can overcome this. Data Transfer Data transfer creates two permanent copies of the dataone at the origin and the other at the destination. This isn't an issue when the destination doesn't require a copy of the data. However, it could be a problem if the data is changing or needs to be constantly updated. Ideally, one copy of the data should be deleted when it's no longer required. In some cases the transfer of data can involve a third party - such as an IT department or cloud service provider. In this scenario it is essential to identify who is responsible for managing both the transfer process as well as the data in question. This will help avoid any issues that might result from unauthorised access to data or corruption. Key programming is an excellent tool for auto repair shops to have in their arsenal, but there are certain limitations that technicians need to keep in mind. Putrino explained that the first step is to acquire a locksmith ID. This credential provides technicians with access to the vehicle's immobilizer, as well as PIN codes by using the National Automotive Service Task Force's Secure Data Release Model. Also, make sure the shop has scanners that are able to handle the process. The scanners will have to be able to harvest the PIN code from the modules, as well as allow technicians to program new keys. Furthermore, many OEMs are requiring that keys transmit more than its ID code. VW, Chrysler and other manufacturers require that the key also transmits the unique VIN number of the vehicle. These additional transmissions can be programmed by using the key programming tool. Many technicians do not offer key programming, but those who do can make a lot of money.

General Motors decided to do something different in the early 1980s, when auto theft was at its highest. General Motors introduced the Vehicle Anti-Theft System key, which had a transponder embedded in the head and was connected to the immobiliser on the vehicle. The VATS key functioned by sending a message to the computer that was onboard the car. The computer would match the signal to a stored code, and if it wasn't paired with the immobiliser, then it was unable to start the engine. A professional locksmith could make the VATS key, which was compatible with many automobiles at the time. This method of preventing auto-theft was not completely foolproof. Thieves could use modified key blanks in order to start engines on certain vehicles. In the end, the company had to improve their security measures, and the subsequent generation of VATS keys came out in 1996. The new keys included a transponder in the head of each blank, and were programmable with the use of a key programmer that was specially designed for the purpose.
