Detect cheaters by their gameplay behaviour
Gaming platforms detect cheaters by their gameplay behaviour
Fits: Customer service · IT & software development
Aimbots, wallhacks and bots stand out through gameplay behaviour, even when the cheat software itself is new and unknown. Honest players get fairer rounds, and your support team has fewer reports to go through by hand.
Is this for you?
- Your game has a competitive mode, leaderboards or player trading, where cheating harms others.
- You store game data per round, such as hits, reaction times, movements and player reports, and you have confirmed cheater cases for comparison.
- You have a team that looks at suspected cases and handles appeals.
Make up a table of twelve players of the same rank, including one who clearly stands out, a strong player on a new account and one where only a single value is out of line. Have it analysed with the template below and look at whom the analysis would wrongly suspect.
How to go about it
- Define cheat types and behavioural features
- Bring together round data, reports and known cases
- Set up detection rules and a behavioural model
- Have suspected cases reviewed by people
- Define sanctions and an appeals process
- Adapt features to new cheats
