Do you ever feel like you’re carrying around a bag of bricks when you have to bring your house keys, car keys, and wallet with you everywhere you go? What about all of the passwords that you’re required to remember? And worst of all, they’re constantly changing because your company wants you to change it every 45 days. And they’re getting longer! How in the world are we supposed to keep track of all of these things? Everykey is here to help eliminate as many of these issues as possible.
What is Everykey?
Everykey is a Bluetooth device that replaces all of those items! Using military-grade security, it unlocks your phone, laptop, tablet, house door, car door, and other access-controlled devices when you are nearby, then locks them back down when you walk away. The system also generates secure passwords for your website accounts, then automatically logs you in when you visit a website. If you lose your Everykey, don’t worry! You can remotely freeze it so no one else can use it.
The Everykey team was started by a group of graduates from Case Western Reserve University. They were inspired to create the product after they saw how much time and hassle people go through every day just to keep track of their keys and passwords. Everykey is their solution to this problem!
How does Everykey work?
Everykey uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to communicate with the devices that you’ve authorized it to unlock. When you’re in range of a compatible device, it will automatically unlock. When you walk away, Everykey will automatically lock it again. It also uses 128-bit AES encryption to keep your passwords safe and secure.
To get started with your device, all you need to do is download the app and create an account. Then, just pair your Everykey with your devices and start using it! It’s that simple.
How does Everykey compare to its competitors?
Everykey is the only Bluetooth device that can unlock your house, car, and other access-controlled devices. It also has the added security of password generation and website login automation. Other competitors include key fobs, RFID tags, and passwords stored on phones or computers.
Key fobs are small plastic devices that you carry with you to unlock your car or house door. They’re often used in place of a traditional key and are available from a variety of brands such as Yale, Kwikset, and Schlage. However, they can be easily lost or stolen, and some models require you to remove them from your keyring in order to use them.
RFID tags are similar to key fobs but don’t have any physical form. They can be attached to your keyring, placed in a wallet, or worn around your neck on a lanyard. RFID tags use radio waves to unlock devices and are available from brands such as Mastercard, Visa, and American Express. However, they can be easily scanned by anyone who is close enough, and some models require you to have the tag within inches of the device in order to unlock it.
Passwords stored on phones or computers are vulnerable to hacking and theft. If someone gets access to your phone or computer, they can see all of your passwords without having to crack any encryption codes. Everykey eliminates this vulnerability by using military-grade security that is impossible for hackers to penetrate.
Who is Everykey for?
Everykey is for those of us who have trouble remembering passwords. With its 2 factor authentication, you can eliminate the need to remember your passwords. Instead, you can simply use the key. It is also for those whose passwords change all the time. When your password changes for work, or your email, you’re still protected and your workflow doesn’t have to change. But, Everykey is also for those who carry too many keys. The device is designed to be able to help secure your home, car, and more, with partnerships with other security products.

Everykey is available now on the company’s website. To learn more about the company or the key, or to purchase your own, head over to the company’s website.

If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of 8K video. But what is 8K video? Simply put, 8K refers to the resolution of the video – in other words, the number of pixels. 8K video has a resolution of 7680 x 4320, which is 16 times the resolution of 1080p HD!

When traveling internationally, one of the biggest challenges is the language barrier. But, in modern business, interacting with people in other languages has become a normal part of the process.

If you’re like most business owners, you’re always on the lookout for new and innovative ways to increase revenue and stay ahead of the competition.

If you have ever bought a name-brand product online, you know how hard it can be to verify that the product is real. Even in retail stores, you can’t always guarantee that what’s on the shelf is the real thing. And that’s just new – what about when you buy something second-hand at a thrift store or on eBay? It’s a complete gamble whether it’s a genuine product or a knockoff. That’s where 
As a company, you’ve got data. Every company has data – and a lot of it. But, trying to troll through everything that’s ever been created in order to turn it into something useful can be a challenge. One employee in the finance department has created a spreadsheet that contains the exported revenue broken down per employee. Another employee in marketing has broken the same numbers down by department. 
Whether you are new to the crypto game or have been involved since the beginning, protecting your investment from theft needs to be your top priority. Every year, billions of dollars worth of crypto assets are stolen from online wallets at exchanges and on personal computers and phones. The only way to trust protect your assets is to keep them in a place where the outside world can’t access them – cold storage. 
For decades, we’ve been promised flying cars. In The Jetsons, we were told that flying cars were not new and had been around for years. But, the show takes place in 2062 – only 40 years from now. So, where are the flying cars? We’ve seen a few at CES in the past few years, but 
If you’re like most people, you probably dread the idea of going to the optometrist. It’s always a hassle to find time in your schedule, and then you have to deal with trying on all those glasses until you find the perfect pair. 
If you are a small or medium-sized business, you know how difficult it can be to put together all of the data you need to get the most out of tax law. There are tons of credits available to you, but you must know what qualifies so you can avoid a costly and time-consuming IRS audit. You can pay a tax professional to constantly monitor your activities to look for things like R&D tax credits, but that might cost the company more than what it will get back in credits. Now there’s REV by Leyton to help you out.
