FOBBlocker is a vital defense against the rising threat of relay attacks in the USA. These attacks target keyfob vulnerabilities, which account for nearly 50% of the annual 1 million car thefts. Relay attack devices are thieves’ tool of choice. They’re cheap, easy to buy online, and allow for quick and easy control without training, resulting in successful thefts. FOBBlocker utilizes an advanced microcontroller to deactivate your keyfob’s power when no motion is detected for 8 seconds, effectively countering these attacks and providing dependable security for your vehicle.

Through this visual narrative, viewers will gain a clear understanding of the threat relay attacks pose and the urgent need for FOBBlocker as an effective defense against this growing problem.
Relay Attacks Uncovered: Vulnerabilities
All modern-day cars are vulnerable to relay attacks:
- Thief 1 captures your car’s keyfob signals from a distance.
- These signals are sent to Thief 2, who is near your car.
- Thief 2 will unlock and start your car without the physical keyfob.
Relay attacks are a real concern because they make car theft quick and easy. Therefore, safeguarding your vehicle is crucial. That’s where FobBlocker comes in. It deactivates your keyfob’s power after 8 seconds of inactivity, preventing relay attacks and keeping your car secure while still allowing keyless entry and ignition.
