Can the signal from my key fob be read by thieves from inside my house?

Can the key fob for my keyless entry Jaguar XF be read inside my house by thieves?

Not if you put the keys inside a signal blocking 'Faraday' bag, no amount of clever kit will be able to find and boost the signal to the car.

How can I protect my keyless entry car from being stolen?
Does keyless entry theft only apply to cars with a push start button, or all cars that are opened with a key fob? I would like to be clear so that we can take appropriate security action.
I've read more and more about the 'relay' method for car theft. Are all cars potentially a target, or only those which have keyless entry?
