Introduction
When your door lock is connected to the internet, security is not just about physical intrusion – it is also about digital security and privacy. FEOCEY has implemented multiple layers of protection, but understanding these measures helps you configure your lock for maximum security.
Encryption Standards
Data in Transit
All communication between FEOCEY locks and the FEOCEY servers uses TLS 1.3 encryption. This means even if someone intercepts the network traffic between your lock and the server, they cannot read or modify the commands being sent.
Data at Rest
User access codes are stored using bcrypt hashing with a cost factor of 12 – the same standard used for storing passwords in high-security applications. This means even if FEOCEY’s database is breached, your access codes cannot be reverse-engineered.
Lock-to-App Communication
Bluetooth communication between your phone and the lock uses AES-256 encryption with perfect forward secrecy – each session has a unique encryption key that cannot be derived from previous sessions.
Access Code Security
Why FEOCEY Does Not Use Fingerprint or NFC
Fingerprint data, once compromised, cannot be changed – you cannot issue a new fingerprint. FEOCEY’s keypad + App approach means if an access code is compromised, you simply deactivate it and issue a new one in seconds. Your biometric identity remains private.
Code Length Requirements
FEOCEY requires access codes to be at least 4 digits. For high-security applications, 6-8 digit codes are recommended. The system locks out after 5 incorrect code entries for 5 minutes, preventing brute-force code discovery.
Privacy Protections
Data Collection Policy
FEOCEY collects only the minimum data necessary to operate the service:
- Access event timestamps (stored for 90 days)
- Battery level readings (stored for 30 days)
- App usage analytics (anonymized, opt-out available)
FEOCEY does not sell user data to third parties and does not use access patterns for profiling.
Two-Factor Authentication Setup
Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your FEOCEY Home App account. This requires a code from your authenticator app in addition to your password when logging in from a new device. To enable:
- Open FEOCEY Home App and go to Settings > Account Security
- Select Enable Two-Factor Authentication
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy, etc.)
- Enter the 6-digit code to confirm setup
What To Do If Your Phone Is Compromised
If your phone is lost or stolen:
- Log into FEOCEY Home App from any web browser at feocey.com
- Navigate to Settings > Devices and revoke the compromised phone’s session
- Change your FEOCEY account password
- The stolen phone will be logged out immediately and cannot control your lock
