All of this is part of the continuous conflict between cheating developers and game companies, which spend money on developing anti-dispute programs and trying to reduce evil behavior in their games-sometimes Incurred Judicial cases On the issues of copyright. “It is a legal gray area. It is not illegal to sell fraud” in most countries, noting that China and South Korea are among the few countries that made the crime of using fraud programs, “said Zoutia.
Andrew Hogan, one of the founders of Intorqa, the founder of Intorqa, who provides data for gaming companies about the ecosystem of fraud, says the developers are always developing their cheating, becoming more technical, and trying to find ways about anti -fraud systems. “Until the best fraud is discovered,” says Hogan. “They do not work forever and often do not work for a week. But we see cheating developers who update their leaves every day.”
Cheating sites can make large claims themselves. The general website pages say that it is a “fixed daily test” pledge to ensure that cheating is still working, claiming that it can be used “that can be used without a long -term ban.” “We have not discovered many fraud from the time of their release,” the website says. The other Cheats site claims that its penetration is “uncomfortable” and that its offers can be customized: “customize the fraud to suit your specific needs and gameplay.”
There were no three -checked sites contacted by WIRED to emails that request interviews or answer questions.
While cheating and fraud in fraud is increasing in most cases, Hogan says that there is a “return” recently in an old man It was renamed as AI-Maimbots. Robots, which are an external type of fraud, read what is happening on the screen and aims to the fraud player. Just now it has been improved by developers who use a computer vision. “It is much easier and faster for developers to create automated and AI learning programs and object detection programs,” Hogan says, noting that there has been an increase in their use in recent months.
Over time, the popularity of fraud and the funds concerned, inevitably attracted the attention of Internet criminals and fraudulents. In recent years, thousands of government sites and universities have been hacked all over the world to pay “offers” and “offers” that are actually used to pay harmful programs and obtain personal information. Children trying to cheat in the Gorilla Tag game, a APE -based chase game, to install a questionable VPN can kidnap traffic on the Internet. The researchers say that in their analysis of 80 -selling sites for cheating, they have not found any direct evidence of fraud or malware, most likely because they are trying to earn money and build a strong reputation.
Since the battle of cheating and combating development has become more advanced, both sides have moved to Kerneel, the essence of the computer operating system. The deployment of Kernel drivers, at the deepest level of the operating system, as they enjoy high levels of access, creates the risks of everything from the system levels to possible privacy and security gap points – the introduction of almost unrestricted person on your computer is never a good idea. For an example of the problems that Kernel’s arrival could cause, the failed update of Crowdstrike was last year, which was disrupted by millions of computers around the world was possible because its program had Kerneel’s arrival. Microsoft has announced that it will transport anti -virus products and detect the end point (EDR) Outside the nucleus in the future.
In April, ELISE MURPHY, Head of Game Security at Electronic Arts, He wrote in a blog post The Jellen Jevelin anti -cell system has prevented 33 million attempts to cheat since the program was launched in 2022.
According to the University of Birmingham, researchers, this access to the level of the nucleus makes the anti -excavation systems incredibly strong when it is actually related to defense against electronic attacks as well. “One of the results we have reached is that your laptop may never be safe as when Fortnite is playing,” says Choutia.
