It can also detect the presence of an individual driver and adjust the vehicle settings to accommodate their preferences. For example, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, the system will recognize this and then automatically shut the doors.

Certain keyless entry systems can be vulnerable to attacks, even though they're generally very secure.
