I work in a secure facility which is currently having its systems updated. We used to have key pads at secure points of entry, then the security lads figured out that it was possible to isolate the four keys being used by the amount of wear on the buttons. So, we're getting scramble pads, where the layout of the key pad changes after every use. Needless to say, this is not useable for blinks, so I have to have a special access card. So if anybody's thinking about key pads, be aware and watch out for the scrambled ones.
