Abstract: KeeLoq is a block cipher used in wireless devices that unlock the doors and alarms in cars manufactured by Chrysler, Daewoo, Fiat, GM, Honda, Jaguar, Toyota, Volvo, Volkswagen, etc [8,9,33,34]. KeeLoq is inexpensive to implement and economical in gate count, yet according to Microchip [33] it should have “a level of security comparable to DES”.
