The onboard computer reads the digital serial number inside the chip and allows the car to start if it's the correct one. This helps prevent theft of cars as thieves would have to know your unique serial number to be able to steal it.
The microchip inside the key transmits a low-level signal the car's receiver. The radio signal activates the microchip, which then transmits an informational code to the car's onboard computer. The car will only start if it recognizes this code. This prevents "hot wiring" or other methods to steal cars.

GM used 15 different resistances for the VATS Pellets and attached them to key blades so that when the key cutting car is turned on, the key blades transmit a coded message to the module. If the signal matches the one of the transistors in a VATS pellet, then the relay in starter circuit will turn on and the engine will begin to run. This doesn't make a car safe from theft however it will delay the thief by at least 15 to 20 minutes.
