Led by Arxan Technologies' Security Solutions Architect, David Bott, the session will center on gaming software and its vulnerabilities to software hacking with a focus on how to prevent code hacks, and protect game integrity and revenues. Bott will detail the security challenges faced by different game architectures, including massive multiplayer online role-playing games and mobile games. In response to growing threats, Bott will educate audience members on best practices for game protection against server cloning, cheating, reverse-engineering and tampering that can lead to intellectual property theft.

In addition, Bott will be offering a preview of Arxan's Data Obfuscation guard technology (Dynamic & Static). This advanced guard technology protects runtime program data against reverse engineering, by obscuring data location and making values difficult to understand. By effectively changing the location of heap data at runtime so that data locations vary across program runs, game security is further enhanced, raising the bar against hackers aiming to manipulate game value.
