Delta Force Security Team Highlights New Anti-cheat Measures
Dear Operator, to maintain a fair gaming environment and improve your experience, G.T.I. Security is committed to fighting every kind of cheat. We previously announced our efforts against DMA cheats. Now, we're introducing our measures against VT cheats.
How VT Cheats Differ from Traditional Cheats
Unlike DMA cheats, VT cheats operate at the hypervisor level and leverage virtualization technology, giving them higher privileges than the security systems. As a result, VT cheats can virtualize the operating system before the game even starts, thus leaving no traces in the computer's actual operating environment. With its built-in KernelBase anti-cheat toolkit, Delta Force is able to detect and neutralize VT cheats quickly and accurately.
Countermeasures from Delta Force:
G.T.I. Security is aware that continuous improvements in anti-cheat measures are the key to keeping Delta Force fair and secure. We will continue to invest in new anti-cheat strategies and features, optimize detection technology, and step up our enforcement efficiency.
Meanwhile, we call on all players to join us in resisting the use of cheats. Report suspicious accounts and contribute to maintaining a fair gaming environment.

- Kernel-level security collaboration: Since the Open Beta, we've worked closely with Microsoft to leverage Windows kernel security features to combat cheats. These features are being rolled out in Delta Force to safeguard our gaming environment.
- Detecting illegal virtual environments: G.T.I. Security has deployed a comprehensive detection strategy to pinpoint these hidden VT-based virtual environments, exposing cheaters wherever they are.
- Combatting cheater advantages: VT cheats often grant unfair advantages such as wallhacks or aimbots. G.T.I. Security has proven strategies in place to detect and penalize these violations effectively.

Then again Activision catch the cheaters, shadow or perma bans them, the cheater creates a new account to run rampant in Warzone or even purchases the multiplayer MW/BO game again, either way they still making more money to fill their pockets and sell more copies, conspiracy? Forget HW Spoofing, why don't they just hardware ban instead.
Imagine having a controller not only watching you, but having one hand in your underwear and browsing a file folder with your whole life history and background checks with his other hand. He also has free access to your home at any time, without a warrant.
All of this to play a game.
Personally I weigh the risk of potential personal data leakage vs. Potential for having fun playing games in my down time.
Easy decision.
I dont understand why the developers of online games do not implement a system where the position of enemies is not revealed to the client hardware when it is out of the client's field of view, wouldn't that solve the problems with wall hackers? I'm probably talking bullshit, I don't understand programming btw
ANY risk is still only potential. The potential for me to be affected by a security incident involving the anti cheat for Delta Force is in my opinion for a private person neglible.
The potential for cheaters ruining my down time entertainment without kernel level AC is 100%.
I know exactly what I risk in both scenarios.
The problem may not be one anti-cheat, but it certainly is several of them piled up together (the same way several AV installed simultaneously is rarely a good idea). Then you have games that don't install a different anti-cheat solution. They use the same one, only a newer version. You have no control over these, no way of telling whether they play nice with each other.
My solution to all this is simple: gaming is entertainment, if they can't keep it in the user space, they can keep it..
