**Protect Your Car from Key Fob Hacking**

To prevent car theft, experts recommend using simple methods to protect your key fob’s signal:

1. **Aluminum Foil Wrap:** Cheap and effective, foil blocks the fob signal, preventing thieves from amplifying or copying it.
2. **Faraday Bag:** A foil-lined pouch that shields the signal, offering a practical alternative for daily use.

### Why It Matters
Modern cars are vulnerable to hackers using devices to amplify or replicate fob signals, even from inside your home. Thieves can unlock and start vehicles with ease.

### Expert Insights
– Cybersecurity professionals like Holly Hubert (former FBI) and Moshe Shlisel (GuardKnox CEO) emphasize safe fob storage, such as metal cans or foil.
– Automakers are working on better protections, but for now, DIY solutions remain crucial.

### Reality of Wireless Cars
As vehicles become increasingly connected, theft techniques evolve. Until stronger security is standard, simple precautions like foil-wrapping fobs offer affordable peace of mind.
