Responsible Disclosure: Anti-Cheat Vulnerability Report
Hello Apex Legends Team,
I’m reaching out as a concerned member of the Apex Legends community. Cheating in the game has reached a point where standard reporting and in-game measures are no longer effective. Commercially available cheats are publicly accessible, allowing cheaters to disrupt both casual and ranked gameplay.
The issue is not only technical — it’s also impacting community trust and player retention. Many players are frustrated and losing faith in fair competition, which threatens the long-term health of Apex Legends.
I urge your team to take stronger, more transparent measures:
- Increase real-time detection and enforcement against cheaters.
- Communicate openly with the community about anti-cheat updates and strategies.
- Consider collaborating with security researchers or ethical hackers to stay ahead of commercial cheat developers.
Your dedication to fair play has always been one of Apex Legends’ strengths. Addressing this cheating crisis proactively will restore confidence and protect the integrity of the game.
Thank you for your attention and action on this matter.
- What can be done:
- Hardware-level anti-cheat (like kernel drivers or hardware ID bans/specially they openly sharing video that is disabling TPM and Secure boot they are somehow bypassing the cheats also people use something called DMA ) — risky but effective.
- AI-based behavioral detection that flags non-human patterns (flick speed and many more)
