With the Remote Access Key(Remote Keyless Entry or RKE), you can both lock and unlock the doors of the vehicle in question, and even open the trunk in cars that also have electric trunk opening.
To use this system, our Galaxy only has to store digital key in Samsung Wallet. In this way, to open the doors, use the ultra wide band
In terms of security, there is nothing to worry about since digital keys like this are stored on the device itselfthey do not go up to the cloud at any time, and they are encrypted and protected with EAL6+ protocol.
