Introduction
Smart locks connect your door to the internet. This guide addresses the security and privacy questions that matter most.
FEOCEY Data Security Practices
Encryption: Data in transit uses TLS 1.3; data at rest uses AES-256; lock firmware stores credentials in encrypted storage.
Two-Factor Authentication: FEOCEY supports 2FA for all accounts. Enable it – it prevents account takeover even if your password is compromised.
Network Security Best Practices
- Use WPA3 or WPA2-AES encryption on your router
- Never share your Wi-Fi password with untrusted parties
- Create a separate IoT network for smart home devices
- Keep router firmware updated
Physical Security
Store a copy of your emergency key in a secure location outside your home, with a trusted neighbor, or in a secure lockbox. FEOCEY also supports a “duress code” that grants access while silently notifying your emergency contact.
Privacy: What FEOCEY Collects
FEOCEY collects: account information (email, phone), lock activity logs (timestamps), device information (model, firmware, Wi-Fi signal). FEOCEY does NOT collect video, audio, your Wi-Fi password, or unnecessary physical address data.
What Happens If FEOCEY Shuts Down?
Locks continue to operate locally via keypad codes. Physical keys always work. App functionality ceases without cloud service.
Security Checklist
- Enable two-factor authentication
- Use a strong, unique password
- Enable WPA3/WPA2-AES on your home Wi-Fi
- Store a physical backup key securely
- Regularly review access logs
- Delete access codes immediately when no longer needed
- Set up low-battery notifications
Conclusion
When used correctly, a smart lock is more secure than a traditional lock. FEOCEY implements industry-standard encryption and security practices.
