Doom Eternal's New Denuvo Anti-Cheat Protection Raises Eyebrows

<p>Id Software has issued its <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/doom-eternal-update-1-out-now-on-xbox-one-ps4-and-/1100-6477326/">first big update</a> for <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/doom-eternal/">Doom Eternal</a>, with a host of changes and tweaks. Most of the changes were welcome, but among them was an anti-cheat tech on PC that has some players concerned about security vulnerabilities.</p><p>The <a href="https://slayersclub.bethesda.net/en/article/2zHgbzsIV8gTzFUZ75ADGx/update-1">official patch notes</a> mention that the game now uses Denuvo Anti-Cheat, which uses a kernel-mode driver. The bullets regarding the device look to assuage concerns, stating that the driver starts when the game launches and stops when the game ends, and that it does not take screenshots, scan your file system, or stream shellcode. What it is doing is collecting information on how the OS interacts with the game, and then sends that data to the Amazon-hosted game servers.</p><p>The patch notes also point out it can be uninstalled through the "Add or remove programs" dialogue. Denuvo will also be uninstalled if you uninstall the game itself.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/doom-eternals-new-denuvo-anticheat-protection-rais/1100-6477329/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
