Why You Should Guard Your Keys the Same Way You Guard Your Passwords

— -- Here's a reason to put your keys away: The only thing tech savvy criminals need to gain entry to your home is just a quick photo of your key.

After sending a photo of the front and back of a key to a website called KeysDuplicated.com, the company promises to turn your photos into a workable key that will be cut and mailed the same day they receive a request.

While Keys Duplicated has security measures in place to weed out photos that may have been surreptitiously taken, the company also brings up the point that cyber criminals are less likely to order keys when their credit card is involved.

The bottom line: While online key cutting services can make running an extra errand easier -- it may be best to start guarding your keys the same way you protect your passwords.
