The security system for a protected object comprises a first wireless
module, a central controller, and a remote authorization server. The
first wireless module and the central controller are disposed in the
protected object. The first wireless module transmits an authorization
request with an authorization ID (identification) of the protected
object, and receives an authorization response. The central controller is
coupled to the first wireless module, and allows the protected object to
operate in accordance with the authorization response. The remote
authorization server, responsive to the authorization request, generates
the authorization response from an authorization record thereof in
accordance with the authorization ID, and transmits the authorization
response.
