From Kernel to Community: Building a Modern, Multi-Layered Anti-Cheat Ecosystem for Frictionless Play (Presented by Denuvo by Irdeto)

Maintaining game integrity is critical for revenue, community health, and long-term viability. This panel brings together experts from Amazon Games, Embark Studios, and Denuvo to explore the modern security landscape.

The discussion focuses on the strategic integration of robust, low-level protections—including kernel-level access—alongside sophisticated, data-driven detection methods. Beyond the technical "arms race", panelists will address the industry's most delicate challenge: navigating community sentiment. The session will highlight the crucial balance of maximizing security efficacy while ensuring an invisible, frictionless experience for legitimate players. Attendees will learn how to maintain fair play without alienating their audience, gaining a comprehensive view of the strategic, technical, and operational efforts required to protect competitive environments while building—rather than breaking—player trust.
