Property crimes is said to hover around 10 million annually. Of this vehicle theft tops the list and often occurs in all parts of the world. There are so many recent technologies evolving and new methods are being upgraded in overcoming this issue. Internet of Things has paved way to provide interaction between things. Internet of things with intelligence is a new era for the technology developments. The existing methods have various shortcomings like the logics used cannot be implied in all the situations. The methods involved in vehicle theft detection have become aware to everyone including the burglars and they try to break the system and steal the vehicle. Therefore there must be a system which invisibly and uniquely authenticates and authorizes the vehicle. The system should not know its existence to the outsiders. A mobile app can act as an interaction between the user and the vehicle. Location updates are sent periodically to the registered user through mobile app. Privacy plays an important role which is maintained through the mobile app where vehicle is being monitored when friends, relations and drivers uses the vehicle.
