Cheating has gone from merely seeking control of game client memory to methods that attempt to modify the underlying operating system.
The battle against cheats is constantly evolving and we’re always working on better ways of accomplishing our goals. We want you to play in a world where you never have to doubt your abilities or your opponent’s. Riot’s committed to achieving the highest competitive integrity in our games. With that in mind, let’s look at our philosophy for Vanguard and the fundamentals of its architecture. The bottom line is we would never let Riot ship anything if we weren’t confident it treated player privacy and security with the extreme seriousness they deserve. We can’t get too deep into the technical specifics without potentially compromising Vanguard, but we’ll go as far as we safely can below, plus we can assure you that it has been reviewed by both internal and external security experts. We understand the decision to run the driver component in kernel-mode can raise concerns, and that some of you want to know more about the tech behind Vanguard. The Anti-Cheat team made sure Vanguard was designed with our Security and Data Privacy teams coordinating closely at every stage of development. This is as true in 2020 as it was in 2017. centered around providing options, not roadblocks. feedback-driven and audience-focused, and. the guardian of Riot’s player-focused culture,. A Little Background on Riot SecurityĪ few years ago, we wrote about how security has evolved at Riot. Our buddy Paul “Riot Arkem” Chamberlain has been addressing questions where he can, but as a group of the most unapologetically paranoid Rioters, we wanted to give Riot Arkem a little backup and give you some added insight into how Vanguard was built with security and privacy at its heart. 
The biggest concerns we’re hearing are about the security of the driver and your privacy. We’ve discussed Vanguard in the past, but over the last week there’s been a lot of conversation about Vanguard and its kernel mode driver.
And we’re here to talk about Riot Vanguard.
We’re Chris Hymes (Data Protection Officer & Chief Information Security Officer), Mark Hillick (Director of Security), Clint Sereday (Anti-Cheat Product Lead), Daniel Hu (Data Privacy Product Lead), and Warren Kenny (Application Security Product Lead).
