Not when the tool has a brushless motor that is run by a microprocessor, and the activation is part of the microprocessor's operating code.
Well, I moonlight as a professional reverse engineer. I’m given products by my employer, and I extract, and analyze the code, and produce a report. The instances of a “well designed security system” are very rare. From using microcontrollers with public exploits that allow you to dump the firmware. To using standard crypto functions poorly, it’s usually BAD. (Or home-rolled encryption/protection routines that are comically bad).
Now, as for these devices in particular? I’d bet this is an add-on of some sort. Bluetooth activated relay, or something like that. The normal microcontroller that you would use to run a motor like that WOULDN’T have bluetooth comm as an option. And I can’t see them opting for a whole new CPU/Controller/SoC just to slap this in.
