In cooperation with international institutes (RCAR), the AZT has further developed the virtual key requirements, published in Germany last year, into a globally applicable standard. "This is the first global standard for IT security in the theft protection of motor vehicles which can be used uniformly in all markets as a basis for developers and as a basis for the regulation of total theft by insurers," says Jochen Haug, member of the Allianz Board of Management responsible for claims.

The requirements for virtual vehicle keys, according to the international RCAR standard, can be downloaded here.

Further details on the virtual vehicle key can be found in our current Allianz press release (in German language only).
