I think it is the standard button.  But to clone it you will need to get
hold of a valid button, and that is no worse (perhaps better) than copying
a
key or swipe card. I gather that some systems use the ibuttons with EEPROM
and store a second key which is updated every time the button is used a bit
like code hopping RF systems
