Rampant cheating in Riot Games’ titles becomes a concern following major cyber attack
New cheats in Riot Games’ titles may emerge after hackers exfiltrated the games’ source code during the cyber attack that hit the company earlier this week. The game company shared an update a few days after its first statement on the incident, ensuring players it is working on assessing the impact the attack might have on the anticheats of Riot’s games.
According to Riot, the attackers sent a ransom mail demanding the company to pay an unknown amount of money. The company publicly refused to comply with the request, which might lead to the stolen source code appearing online and causing major disruption to Riot and its games.
