Marathon Game Security Update

In our last game security update, we mentioned that we are expanding our telemetry and updating our detection methods to widen our net in catching suspected cheaters. We want to provide an update on those efforts and report that we have made progress in actively banning confirmed cheaters. We’ve begun rolling out a more advanced detection system that targets specific cheat patterns we’re seeing in live matches. We’re continuously validating and tuning it to make sure we’re catching real cheating and not introducing false positives and believe this should improve our ability to remove bad actors quicker. While we are acting on many of the reports you send, it was not possible to show that your reports have led to action. To help bring more transparency to how your reporting is making an impact, today we are rolling out the first version of a Report Confirmation Pipeline to help close that gap. This first iteration will confirm when an action has been taken against an account you've reported, with planned upgrades in future seasons to improve how and when those decisions are communicated back in-game. As a reminder, we are always on the hunt for new cheats and are working to respond as quickly as we can. While we cannot give specifics, we are monitoring the game and will continue to update our internal detection systems to respond to the latest cheats. We do not view anti-cheat as a one-time investment but an ongoing effort to maintain a fair playing field.As the cheating landscape evolves, so will we. Our mission is to continuously identify, adapt, and respond to new cheats as quickly as we can.
