As a result of physically owning the client machine, cheaters in network games currently have the upper-hand when it comes to avoiding detection by anti-cheat software. To address this problem and turn the tables on cheaters, this paper examines an approach for cheat detection based on the use of stealth measurements via tamper-resistant hardware. To support this approach, we examine a range of cheat methods and a number of measurements that such hardware could perform to detect them.
In REF the authors propose to use tamper-resistant hardware to detect cheaters.
