- An Approach To Game Compromise
-
(The original document I wrote on the topic, all examples are targeted towards
video games -- see the examples section for popular examples)
Game compromise, a term that includes cheating and cracking, seems to mature at the same rate as game creation. For each device implemented follows a device to manipulate it. For each countermeasure comes an equally capable circumvention. A body of knowledge about the mitigation of compromise has grown, and continues to grow. It is unfortunate however that this knowledge appears disparate: inaccessible to those who need it and lacking a general framework of classification and extension.
