1. A system, comprising:
a memory that stores computer executable components; and
a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise:
a key interface configured to interact with a physical key that comprises an embedded radio frequency identification device (RFID) that enables control of a set of operations of a vehicle, wherein the physical key is physically locked in the key interface, and wherein the key interface comprises a faraday cage generator; and
an access component configured to control operation of the key interface, and further configured to:
control the key interface to establish, via the faraday cage generator, a faraday cage around the physical key that blocks transmissions from the embedded RFID to disable control of the set of operations of the vehicle;
receive a first cryptographic signature from a first device associated with an owner of the vehicle;
receive an access request from a second device associated with an entity requesting access to the key interface, wherein the access request includes a second cryptographic signature;
determining whether the first cryptographic signature and the second cryptographic signature are verified; and
in response to a determination that the first cryptographic signature and the second cryptographic signature are verified:
control the key interface to remove, via the faraday cage generator, the faraday cage around the physical key to enable transmissions from the embedded RFID to enable control of the set of operations of the vehicle.
